Ice Shot Glasses

What is it?
We love simple ideas especially when they make our life easier and more fun. This little piece of bar gadgetry is one of those ideas. The Ice Shot Glasses are essentially a kit that allows you to make 12 ice shot glasses at once. The process involved is very complicated as it involves difficult tasks like filling the trays, placing the caps on and then putting them in your freezer. It odiously comes with instructions (just in case a woman has a go) JOKING!… (even with instructions it would be hard work for them) Yes we are all sexist pigs, but in a good way. The kit is hand wash only and the glasses, once frozen, hold approximately 30ml of booze.

Why do I want it?
We think the Ice Shot Glasses have a plethora of uses and twists, and could think of nothing better than coming up with great drinking ideas all day. But we have a lot of more important things to do (mainly sitting, making coffee and perusing the tinterweb), so we have chosen our best 3 ideas and conveniently displayed them below:

1) Freeze something other than water. Add a splash of colour or hint of flavour to your shot selection. Freeze apple juice to give your drinks a tangy zing or coffee for that hit of caffeine.

2) What a great way to “depth charge” or float your drinks. After seeing a crazy machine that floated a yager shot on our pints, we put one and one together and thought this would be a great way to do the same. Simply fill the ice shot glass with booze then drop it into your drink, give it a little more “pep” and keeping it cool. Team this up with idea 1 and you are onto a sure winner.

3) Have a smashing night. There is little more satisfying than downing a shot of vodka then throwing your glass at the floor like our Russian neighbours. With the ice shot glasses it is ace because you can do it and don’t have to worry about clearing up glass. You could go an extra step and make a target to throw the glasses at, miss and have another shot and another go. We think this could be the perfect start for a seriously messy night.
