When you’re invited to a pool party, your first thought will be which swimsuit you should wear. The second thought will be what food you should bring. Unlike most gatherings, you won’t be sitting around eating food all the time. You’ll be swimming, running around, and grabbing some food here and there when you have a chance. As such, you’ll need the right food for your pool party. Here are some ideas to get you started:
Chips and salsa
Chips and salsa is always a staple at any pool party. You can make your own salsa, but there’s no shame in store-bought if you don’t have the time. Just make sure the salsa isn’t too hot, as some guests may not be able to handle the heat. You can always buy two if you really want a spicy option.
Fruit salad
Fruit salad…yummy, yummy! Pool parties don’t always have to be filled with unhealthy foods. Fruit salad is light, refreshing, and healthy.
Pasta or potato salad
In addition to fruit salad, there is also pasta or potato salad. Either option will work, although pasta salad will last longer outside than potato salad.
Hot dogs and hamburgers
If you want something more filling but that is also quick and easy to eat, then opt for some hot dogs and hamburgers. These will be great to have once everyone is tired after a long day in the pool.
Cocktails
If this is an adult party, then cocktails are the perfect summer drink to have by the pool. Frozen margaritas, mojitos, and pina coladas are all staples, but there are many different types of cocktails you can bring, too.
Pretzels and dip
Pretzels are easy to eat when you’re sitting by the pool. Plus, by adding a few delectable dips, you’ll have a tasty treat. Pretzels also go well with other cocktails, beers, and other drinks you may bring along.
