pitcher

A pitcher is a container used for carrying or serving liquids, usually with one handle on the side.

You've probably seen pitchers in your home or in restaurants, but have you ever thought about what they're actually used for? A pitcher can be a simple, everyday item like a water jug that you use to pour yourself a glass of water. Or it could be something more decorative and fancy, like a beautiful vase-shaped pitcher that holds a special type of tea. Pitchers are also often used in cooking, especially when making large batches of juice or iced drinks. For example, if someone is hosting a big party and they need to serve lemonade to a lot of guests, they might use a big pitcher to mix and serve the drink.
