Its summer over here and I've had this happen to me too often. Get home sweating and thirsty... loads of cans of beer in the shopping bag, but they're all warm. You can't really add ice cubes to your beer - that just ruins the taste! You can leave them in a fridge but that would take too long - even in the freezer it will take like 10 minutes to get them Ice Cold!
You want that beer ICE COLD right now!
Well here's a trick that works every time - make your beer (or any canned drink for that matter) go from warm to ICE COLD in about 60 seconds!
1. Get a small bucket or bowl (something big enough to fit your can of beer/drinks).
2. Put your canned drink inside this bucket/bowl.
3. Fill it with Ice cubes.
4. Pour loads of salt onto the ice.
Wait about 60 seconds... and there you have it. Ice Cold beer.
Simple as that.
What happens is that the salt reacts with the ice cubes making them melt really fast and this makes any surrounding objects go cold as ice (especially cans).
You might think this is a really useless tip - I mean you're probably thinking why not just leave the beers in the fridge in the first place - or just buy cold beer... well truth is no-ones perfect and once in your life you just need to remember this trick. Its likely to impress your mates too.
Give it a go.
Enjoy that ice cold beer!
:)
