I Love These Beverage Dispensers!!!

                                                   
I just received this one yesterday as a free gift in a giveaway from this blog site...Dine and Dish...you can read about it there! It's a fun blogsite written by a freelance writer and mother named Kristen! She's also a very talented photographer...her food photos always make me drool! Check out her blog for lots of great recipes and giveaways! 

This is a very nice dispenser because it's glass and holds 1.6 gallons! It's from OverStock.com and you can get it at a very reasonable price!

When my 2 girls were young, I would fill these kinds of dispensers with lemonade for their 'Lemonade Stand'! They would sit outside selling lemonade for HOURS!!! They made some pretty good money too! 

Now I think I'll be getting lots of use out of this for my new favorite drink...Smooth Sweet Tea! Check it out in this post I did recently...'Seis de Mayo'...or maybe I can fill it with my favorite homemade cocktail...'Red Apple Martinis'!

Thank you so much Kristen, from Dine and Dish!
I know I'll be getting lots of use out of my prize!

  7. Congratulations! I have one in my refrigerator and I always keep fresh water in it..my family always get their cold drinking water from it. Also, Walmart has very cute colored metal ones now in their stores for $12, the picnic section, or water bottle section. The metal ones are so cute!

  8. I purchased a blue metal dispenser from Walmart, and because of its material being made out of metal, it really makes the water very chilly..this is why I like it so much. The glass one broke on us, when we tried to carry it filled with water, to the refrigerator. So, I went out looking for another one..they (glass ones) usually are sold at Marshalls stores (or similar)...but to no avail. So, one day while in Walmart I discovered the metal ones in the seasonal section of the store..we love it! I love all the water dispensers..but do not care much for the plastic ones though.

    1. Yes, that is a good reason to have a metal dispenser! Oh no, your glass one broke while carrying it to the fridge? That must have been a big mess! Even though it was water, I still wouldn't want to be cleaning that up! I wish this one had a handle.
