This season means something different for everyone (to find out your summer personality, take our quiz!). But for our culture connoisseurs and well-tanned travelers out there, summer means indulging our spontaneity, whether that’s finally getting on the pottery wheel, visiting a new destination, or simply enjoying the unique flavor artistry of Waterloo Sparkling Water. Your pals may be content grabbing a brew and lying poolside, but you see summer as a chance to expand your horizons. And to get you started, we’ve created a summer bucket list as eclectic as you are. Take it up a notch: Venture out on a new moon and scout the best stargazing spots in your area. Set up camp somewhere away from a city or town to avoid artificial light that could cloud a starry sky. Curate a cozy setup with pillows and blankets where you can cuddle comfortably under the night sky. Crack open some Waterloo Blackberry Lemonade Sparkling Water to add a dynamic twist of flavor to the experience. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Take it up a notch: Nothing complements a day in the city like impromptu shopping. Grab your bestie and hit up the thrift stores before you head out exploring. Come up with a budget, and pick out an outfit for each other to rock for the rest of the day. Have fun with it, and be open to experimenting with a new look to accompany your artistic endeavors. Take it up a notch: Take your love for smooth sax and double bass to the next level at a jazz festival this season. Jazz fests are hosted all throughout the country in the summertime and are hubs for enjoying art, live music, and like-minded company. Find a festival that’s calling your name, and make a weekend trip out of it, exploring the flavors of a new city while enjoying some of your favorite tunes. Take it up a notch: Gather your creative collective and teach one another something new. If you have a friend who’s a Picasso-level painter, a co-worker who lives and breathes botany, and a sibling who could win the Great British Bake-Off, host a weekly gathering where one person shares and teaches their craft to the group. Take turns teaching and learning for a summer social event that leaves everyone inspired and ready to create. Take it up a notch: Instead of opting for a poolside stay or all-inclusive resort, go the more authentic route. Rent a local apartment or room in a niche boutique hotel or bed-and-breakfast. Choose a city that gives you the opportunity to try new foods, listen to new music, and speak a new language. Open yourself up to a new culture and way of living! Take it up a notch: Go all out curating a cozy environment for an evening that mimics an old-school drive-in movie but better. Hang string lights, lay out floor cushions, and set up a create-your-own-popcorn station. Keep a cooler stocked with Waterloo Sparkling Water to keep your beverage game fresh and flavorful. Get creative and have fun setting the scene for a summer evening nobody will forget.
