On a beautiful late-summer beach day, find yourself off the grid and far from restaurants, stores and supplies in the city. Remember to pack refreshments that’ll keep you energized until sunset, like these ten trending beach snacks and sips. —Julia Dumbrell
Hardbite: Rugged All Dressed Chips
A truly Canadian flavour for the rugged wilderness, the BC-based brand Hardbite infuses sweet, salty, and savoury flavours in each bite of its Rugged All Dressed Chips ($range).
President’s Choice: Mini Hummus
Packing on-the-go beach snacks becomes instantly easier with mini containers of the President’s Choice Middle Eastern-inspired hummus ($5). The convenient containers are ready to pack and pair with chips or veggies, for dipping.
Boursin: Fig and Balsamic Cheese
Celebrating simple moments of indulgent summer joy, Boursin brought a pop-up experience to Montreal, serving boards that pair the cheese with beach picnic-ready favourites ($range). The pop-up experience will be in Toronto this weekend, surprising locals enroute to the lake.
OHME! Freeze Dried Strawberry Yogurt Crunch
OHME! is a local and flavour-packed brand that’s bringing a fresh and flavour-packed twist to beach snacks ($12). The Freeze Dried Strawberry Yogurt Crunch is made with simply three ingredients: BC Local Greek Yogurt, Strawberry and Organic 100% Natural Apple Juice.
Sowleil: Original Seed Butter
Every jar of Sowleil Original Seed Butter is a rich combination of roasted sunflower seeds, roasted pumpkin seeds and chia seeds, naturally sweetened with dates and enhanced with MCT oil ($27/2 jars). It’s scrumptious for serving on bananas or bread, for the heartiest of beach snacks.
Poppi: Fresh New Flavours
Poppi has launched fresh new flavours in Canada, the hottest beach sip of the season ($range). Enjoy the citrus, spice, and everything nice infused in the refreshing Lemon Lime flavour, or the mingling of blueberry, strawberry and raspberry in the Wild Berry Poppi.
Fever-Tree: Sparkling Pink Grapefruit
Fever-Tree is celebrated by beach-goers for its perfect levels of carbonation, enjoyed either on its own or mixed into cocktails ($range). The delicious Sparkling Pink Grapefruit soda is made with a refreshing upfront burst of fresh grapefruit, carefully balanced with soft pink grapefruit floral notes.
Peroni: Nastro Azzurro 0.0%
With its signature Italian style and citrus-forward profile, Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% is a refreshing and elevated alternative that captures the spirit of the coast, perfect for afternoons that stretch into golden hour ($range).
OLÉ: Mocktails
OLÉ brews everyone’s favourite non-alcoholic craft cocktails, truly perfect for the beach ($range). Better yet, the brand’s effervescent Paloma, Margarita and Sparkling Mango mocktails contain no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners.
Skip: Anything from Snacks to Essentials
For any forgotten goods, have Skip deliver favourite snacks and beverages right to the beach ($range). Even Dollarama locations are newly listed on Skip, offering the ultimate beach-day convenience from a snack refill, extra towels, or a spare bottle of sunscreen.
