By Kat Thomas, Editor In Chief, Edible Skinny
“Hold summer in your hand, pour summer in a glass, a tiny glass of course, the smallest tingling sip for children; change the season in you veins by raising glass to lip and tilting summer in.”
Ray Bradbury, Dandelion Wine
June 21st is Officially... THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER.
The First Day of beach trips full of lifeguards, longboards, and life preservers.
The First Day of late nights sipping wine by the the pool and dancing till sunrise.
The First Day of days that go on forever and ever!
So in honor of THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER we present Surf’s Up - Let’s Hit the Beach, our first of two Summer Product Reviews (Part Two focuses on Poolside Adventures!) So here’s to life being delicious, all your moments being postcard worthy, and raising glass to lip and titling summer in! ;-)

The Handloom - Hare Turkish Towel ($39.00)
We’ve tried A LOT of towels in anticipation of summer, but this was our favorite! Made of 100% Turkish Cotton, the Hare Towel is a lightweight, ultra-absorbent towel. Full of versatility, the Hare Turkish Towel is part beach towel, part chic sarong. Hand-loomed in Turkey, the intricate design recalls exotic nights in Istanbul.
nICE Coolers Tumbler with Straw ($9.99)
In the summer (and in the winter according to Jimmy Buffet) we need Boat Drinks, and we especially need COLD Boat Drinks. Enter nICE Coolers Tumbler and with Metal Straws. With a slogan of “official sponsor of having a good time,” they know what’s up! ;-) Their Double Walled, Stainless Steel, Durable and Vacuum Sealed Tumblers allow you to keep drinks cool in style while enjoying time on the boat or the sand. And we’re in LOVE with their metal straws, reusable they lessen our carbon footprint while allowing our Boat Drinks to stay as cool as possible before they hit our lips. With the Tumbler by our side, we’re down to fly to “Saint Somewhere,” to quote JB!
Vyve Capri Splashpants ($64.00)
Part swimwear, part yoga pants Vyve Splashpants, work in water and on land (or even air as they look perfect for skydiving too...). These Splashpants offer fun and versatility to every activewear wardrobe as Splashpants work both in the water and on land! They’re the perfect option if you’re not sure if you’ll get wet or not. Vyve Splashpant works for water aerobics, swim workouts, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, a visit to the water park or pool (as they hold up great in chlorinated water). Plus, you can wear them commando or over your favorite swimsuit.
