    Liquor Bottles on Ice

    This is one of my favorite over the top, super fun party tricks.

    Fun Party Idea

    Start with a bottle of your favorite liquor, and a milk carton that fits the bottle. (A pint bottle fits in a quart carton, a 750ml bottle fits in a half gallon carton.)

    Cut the top off the carton, place (full) bottle inside. Fill with whatever you like - I have used everything from citrus slices or small plastic cocktail monkeys to sequins and glitter.

    This time I used mandarin, lemon and lime slices. Fit them around the bottle, using a knife to push them all around the bottle.

    Fill bottle with water and place in freezer - it becomes a block of ice around the bottle, and a fun centerpiece to your beverage offerings.

    Remember to have a high rimmed plate for it to sit on as the ice melts!

    Cheers!

      This is a cool idea and it looks great... but what happens when the ice starts to melt? It just seems like maybe it would get a little bit messy.

        yes, it eventually does melt. it takes a while, though, and I've always placed it on a plate, and it's not really too much maintenance, just get rid of the water every now and then and/or add a towel. to me, the fun people have with these is worth it 🙂 I've made these filled with plastic cocktail monkeys, and those turn into fun on their own, people waiting to get them out of the ice...

        the Martinelli's might freeze, though? you could do this with an empty bottle and then fill it with Martinelli's! 😀 happy new year to you too, Krista!! here's to fantastic 2012!
