Fieldcraft Guava Pineapple Hard Seltzer
Price: $7.79
Looking for a premium-tasting drink that fits a budget-conscious cart?

Fresh Strawberries
Price: $2.55
Fresh strawberries at Aldi come in a 1-pound package and are one of the most reliable summer produce buys in the store. Whether you’re slicing them over shortcake, tossing them in a fruit salad or eating them straight from the container (after washing), they deliver peak-summer flavor without the premium price tag you’d find at other retailers. At a bit over $2 per package, it’s easy to justify grabbing a couple.
Fresh Blueberries
Price: $1.99
Fresh blueberries in a 1-pint package are a summer pantry staple that Aldi makes genuinely affordable. Blueberries are packed with antioxidants and work just as well in a smoothie, on top of yogurt or eaten by the handful poolside.
Aldi Macaroni Salad
Price: $4.19
Aldi's macaroni salad comes in a generous 32-ounce container — enough to feed a crowd at your next cookout without any prep work. It’s creamy, classic and ready to serve straight from the fridge alongside burgers, hot dogs or grilled corn.
Fremont Fish Market Chipotle Sea Salt Shrimp Skewers
Price: $6.99
These Fremont Fish Market chipotle sea salt shrimp skewers are fully cooked wild-caught Argentine shrimp seasoned with a smoky Mexican-inspired blend of chipotle, garlic and sea salt. At $6.99 for an 8-ounce pack, they’re a restaurant-quality appetizer or protein that goes straight from the fridge to the grill in minutes. They’re one of Aldi’s most talked-about seasonal seafood picks for good reason.
