It’s officially getting warm outside (well...in a way in Utah it's slowly warming up) and you know what that means....SUMMER!! Summer is my favorite season ever, going out with your best friend, going on awesome adventures then to a fun summer party. One of my fondest memories of summer was last summer when my best friend and I went on a road trip and we decided to pull off the road and have a random party with a table filled with yummy treats just like in these photos. When you're on a road trip you always need something hydrating and Coca-Cola™ is always a must have and it's so easy to get when you can get it right at CVS. So, today I'll be sharing my 5 quick and easy tips on how to create a Share a Coke and a Song Summer Party featuring these Share a Coke and a song Coca-Cola™'s.
4 tips on how to create a
summer share a coke and a song party:
1) Music is always the best to have at any summer party or just a random party off the road with your best friend. Why not have it on your Coca-Cola™ drink as well? They have some of the lyrics we all know and then just add it on your Shazam (which is on Iphone/Ipads & Android Devices) and listen to it, sing it and then drink your soda with the lyrics on it. When you think of music--I believe it's when summer is here and ready to be outside listening to it loud and get your groove on.
2) Make sure you have decorations, all types work. I just had some random flowers around the house and these look great for a party in the summer. Flowers always sets the scene for SUMMER ready activities. You can add some colorful art as well and pinnable things all over.
3) Serve appetizers. I created Coca-Cola Cupcakes which is a great sweet appetizer, I also put some tortilla wrap sliders with easy meats and cheese and wrap them up and cut them. I also put some chips and salsa (Mango Salsa) is perfect for a party and who doesn't love salsa?
4) Keep up with your drinks for your party. I will always make sure to have plenty of drinks on the table or in the fridge, and CVS is perfect for getting your 20oz bottles of Coca-Cola. They are having buy 2 get it for only $3. Which is a great way to save and buy as many as you need.
And That is how I get a party rolling with Coca-Cola!
