This giveaway is now closed. The winner, chosen via Random.org, was Lillian from My Recipe Journey. Congrats and thanks to all who entered!
Fresh squeezed lemonade is a definite spring and summertime staple around our house.
Have you ever made freshly squeezed lemonade? It’s really a lot easier than you’d think! Now, don’t go and use bottled lemon juice if you decide to make homemade lemonade. That’s good in some instances, but unless you want skunky tasting lemonade, stick with juice from lemons you squeeze yourself. It makes a big difference, trust me!
My friends at Overstock.com sent me a stylish beverage dispenser a few days ago so our summer lemonade could be easily poured and shared all summer long! As a part of their celebrate mom sweepstakes happening this week, where they are giving away several fantastic prizes on their facebook page, they wanted to give you all the chance to win a beverage dispenser of your own as well. Whether you serve your favorite sweet tea, flavored lemonade, or even your most loved cocktail punch, you’ll appreciate the ease and functionality this beverage dispenser gives you and your guests when you entertain.
