Lake Life
No boat, no worries. If you’re planning a mini escape during the summer with a small group, keep it simple and find a lakefront property with a dock. Plus, with the portability of Black Box Minis, all in a safe, glass-free box you’re ready to enjoy every last drop of sunshine.
Fancyish Flavors
Get the all inclusive flavors without the all inclusive price tag. Pack up some simple Black Box pairings that don’t require a never ending ingredient list, or a complete kitchen. Opt for simple, seasonal flavors like fruit to take to the dock for the day, like Pinot Grigio Grapes. In a large bowl, pour Pinot Grigio and vodka over grapes. Let them soak for at least 1 hr in the fridge, then strain and pat dry. Coat with a light layer of sugar, and enjoy.Â

Ingredients:
2 lb. green grapes
750ml Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay
4 oz. vodka
1/2 c. sugar
