Serving my drinks in style



This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here

Hear me out. I am sure you have seen some videos online of people taking their beverages and pouring them into carafes and putting them in their fridge then throwing away the container they came in. Even though I think that is wasteful I do have a use for carafes in our home. We often buy fresh, frozen, and ready-to-drink beverages. I use our carafes when we are mixing up our frozen drinks or making homemade lemonade. 

I really like this set I was sent to review. It is a pair of carafes with lids, and little signs and even has a chalkboard marker included to change out the labels as needed. Here you see it being used for our orange juice and fruit punch. My husband says it would also make a nice vase in a pinch. 

Easy to use and care for they make me feel like I am Serving my drinks in style and remind me of the orange juice container my mother had while I was growing up. Besides the lids, I like that the carafes are plain so you can put whichever beverage inside you decide. The labels are cute and let those who are serving themselves know what is inside. Also did I mention they look great in the fridge or at the table. Think lemonade on the porch in the summer. So cute. 

So if you use it like others on videos or just need it for things like we used them for you can find them here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B8YP33D4 if you click on the photo below it takes you to my affiliate link which helps me out too.

Hamilton Mills Coffee Pumpkin Spice Review



I have never been a big coffee drinker but as I have aged I have learned to love a few and I always like to try those that come my way like this Pumpkin Spice flavored Coffee from Hamilton Mills. I tried this right away with some buttered toast. I just added cream and sugar to the coffee and dipped my toast like I did as a child into my mothers coffee.

I find that I like flavored coffees more then other coffee's but with all of the flavored creams on the market you can easily change up your coffee so that you can have something new often. I think this would be an awesome coffee for cool fall mornings, or served  with or without your favorite pumpkin dessert.

I am sure our guests will enjoy this while visiting as well. I know I would love to have my friend Tina over to try this. Tina loves Pumpkin Spice. Tina if you are reading this I am thinking of you. As for the rest of my friends, family, and readers I hope you will let me know if you try this or what your favorite coffee flavor is in the comments below.

With Pumpkin Spice being so big I have no clue why they haven't made it available all year round, so I guess for those who are in love they must stock up when it comes around to get them to the next year so they never have to stop enjoying their favorite flavor of coffee.

Infused Water Pitcher






We have been making what we call spa water for a few years now but we usually just pile in the fruit and then pour the water in. The fruit pretty much just floats in the water and infuses it but with this pitcher from Gear Ultimate the fruit is in the infuser compartment from top to bottom which infuses the water more quickly.

I love that this also comes with ice insert so if you just want ice water or even cold sun tea this will be perfect and won't dilute your drink.

This pitcher has a really nice look that can be taken out and actually served right to your guests. Very pretty and decorative serving pitcher.



The Gear Ultimate Infuses Water Picture can be found on Amazon.
