Beehive Beverage Jar from Sur la table


This summer I am going to get one of those fancy schmancy beverage jars with a spigot. They just add an extra something to your run of the mill cook out, don't you think? I particularly love the look of them with those chalkboard signs....



I plan to fill it with delicious lemonade every chance I get!
Mint Lemonade from MarthaStewart.com

• Ice cubes
• 1 2/3 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons julienned mint, plus leaves for garnish
• 1 lemon, sliced 1/4-inch thick, plus more for garnish


Directions
1. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 1/4 cup water. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat. Let stand until completely cool.
