Guests just arrived and your drinks are still warm? Instead of waiting 30 minutes for the fridge to do its job, this simple freezer trick can chill a drink in just a few minutes!
How to Instantly Chill Drinks With Paper Towel?
- Wrap the drink completely with a paper towel or tissue
- Lightly wet the tissue with water
- Place the drink in the freezer
- Wait about 5 minutes, then remove
Why this works?
The wet tissue increases heat transfer as it freezes and evaporates, pulling heat out of the drink much faster than cold air alone. This hack works best with metal cans. However, this hack won’t work if the glass bottles are too thick.
Notes: Don’t leave it too long as it may freeze or crack!
