What’s more fun than a summertime bonfire? Nature, loved ones, and an opportunity for marshmallows? Those are the core ingredients of a good time, if you ask us!
There are, however, a few things to consider in order to have the perfect night. We like to call it the bonfire trifecta:
1. Comfy clothes
August nights can get chilly, even by the fire. So we suggest wearing clothes that will keep you warm, like our Powered By Plants – Heavyweight Hoodie and our Team Herbivore – Pullover Sweatshirt.
2. A sweet (vegan) treat for the soul
Let’s be real, grilled marshmallows and S’mores are the real stars of a bonfire night. Our favorite combo includes Dandies, dark chocolate, and these vegan graham crackers. Can you say yum?
3. Natural bug repellent
Pesky mosquitoes can ruin a bonfire experience in no time.
As vegans, we prefer finding natural ways to deal with their nuisance.
The easiest solution? Using oil of lemon eucalyptus. This natural plant extract has been shown to be the only chemical-free alternative to repel mosquitoes with lasting efficacy.
