Customer Reviews
Not just ice.
Some have mention using hot water to make stronger clearer ice and that works, but I got to thinking... what else could I make shot glasses from? I melted some Jolly Ranchers and made shot glasses from those... turned out awesome. Next I'll try some chocolate. Also was thinking of using just plain melted sugar. Not sure how well gummy shot glasses wold work but I'm trying that. What else would make a good shot glass?
Cool and Novel...But Messy
This is a fun and novel idea but has only limited use.
Obviously, ice melts and that poses some problems with serving, using and disposing of them. Drinking them is fun, but they get your fingers cold, slippery and wet. And if you've made it out of juice instead of water, you get cold, wet AND sticky. After using them you need a way to dispose of them quickly, because your guests are left holding an empty, cold, melting shot glass that they can't really set down anywhere or reuse (unless they have a glass to put it in and use as an ice cube).
One idea is to present a shot of liquor/liquid that complements what they're already drinking, so they can drop the ice shot glass (with or without the shot) into the cup. But even this requires careful coordination to make sure the cups are large enough and their glass isn't too full. The shot glasses are surprisingly heavy.
The last problem to mention is when the alcohol melts through the ice shot glass and starts spilling out the bottom. Sometimes this happens quickly, spilling the alcohol out onto the counter where you're pouring, or onto your hapless guest when you're handing it to them. I recommend using already-chilled alcohol to help slow that down, and to serve the filled shot glasses as quickly as possible.
Overall, these provide exactly what you expect from an ice shot glass. They're easy to make, look neat, offer some novelty but aren't good for more than a quick impression and a few minutes before melting becomes a reality.
Its Good if your only making 4
For a fraternity party i made about 300 of these. The only place they dont melt is in the freezer, even in bags deep inside large coolers of ice these little guys melted to the point of uselessness. If your only maing 4 they are very impressive and add quite a bit of novlety. On average the shot glasses should last around 20 minutes at room temperature, handling room temperature alcohol. It also helps if you put these in the freezer for at least double the suggested time ( 8 or so hours)
