Summer Entertaining with Minute Maid and FUZE Tea

We’ve been in our house for a few years, and every time summer rolls around, we end up hosting a lot of impromptu pool parties. Peapod from Stop & Shop helps make summer entertaining easy. You can plan your party menu and quickly add all of your ingredients to your cart. All of your entertaining essentials are delivered right to your door a few days later, at your convenience.

We love to fire up the grill in the summer so we don’t have to think twice about prepping anything crazy, but it’s fun to switch it up with a signature drink for each party or a themed drink station. Nothing says summer quite like a lemonade, so I put a fun spin on a lemonade stand with Minute Maid® Lemonade and FUZE® tea.

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • A table or bar cart
  • Tablecloth
  • Minute Maid and/or FUZE tea
  • Ice (Make it fancy by freezing lemons/ limes, mint, or edible flowers!)
  • Fruit puree (I used mixed berries and peaches)
  • Cute signs + picture frame
  • Glassware
  • Fun paper straws

 

One of my favorite tips to make summer entertaining easy involves a little planning ahead, but is totally worth the time. If you’re serving water for a lot of guests, grab a cupcake pan. Slice a lemon and place one lemon slice at the bottom of each section. Fill with water and freeze overnight. You’ll have giant lemony ice cubes for water pitcher refills all day!

With Labor Day Weekend right around the corner, you can get $20 off your first Peapod order and 60 days of free delivery to experience the convenience of Peapod for your summer hosting needs. Plus, the next time you order, Order Genius will fill your cart with items you buy most frequently and let you access your history from your loyalty card – making shopping and entertaining easier than ever!
