Icicle Cocktail Stirrer, Dry Ice Swizzle Sticks for Smokey Cocktails, Drinks, and Coffee, Glows In The Dark, (Use with Dry Ice), 10 Pack

These swizle sticks were a show stopper! A small bit of dry ice goes in the bottom and creates fog in any drink. This was a hit for the kids and kept them safe from getting burned by the dry ice!

I brought these as a gift. I didn't like the look of them, but the person I brought them for never complained. I purchased them from her wish list.

I used it to do some magic potion with some students and it worked great and I did not have to worry about them burning their fingers. I am planning on using it with adult cocktails next. They are also easy to clean. It was easy to get dry ice from Talbert in my area. I do recommend these for any body who wants to host a fun party.After having used it a few times now it’s still a lot of fun. I don’t understand the bad reviews due to the fact that dry ice was not included but it clearly said dry ice not included and there is no need to crush the dry ice to fit it in the spoon because you can ask for the pellets version they sell those in the same place and they fit perfectly. I do agree that $14 is a bit pricey for plastic spoons but it is a lot of fun to use.

I like it but I wish the smoke would have lasted a little longer. I used the dry ice pellets and after the bartender put it in the glass the smoke was over in about 15 to 20 seconds. Maybe we could have added more dry Ice Pallets it would have been more effective.

First of all, you will not get dry ice with this, and understandably so. Dry ice evaporates so quickly it would be gone before the package arrived. You get 10 plastic stir sticks with closeable compartments to contain the dry ice. Now to my understanding this was made for pebble dry ice. However we just bought a block of dry ice from the store and crushed it into smaller pieces. I double bagged the block and started off by dropping it a few times on the garage floor. Then I took a hammer and gently broke it up into smaller pieces, about marble sized. I then loaded all the stir sticks with 1-2 pieces and placed them in the freezer about 1 hour before the party. Put the remainder of the dry ice in the freezer as well. This took all of about 15 minutes. The pre-loaded stir sticks lasted fairly well this way, though they did evaporate a little. They created a great smoky effect that lasted about 3-5 minutes, this may be longer with the pebble dry ice. I found this to be perfect because it was just long enough for everyone to admire and have fun with, but not so long it prevented them from drinking their drink. They held up well in the dishwasher, and should be reusable for year. I gave it a 4 star rating because the packaging wasn't great and one of the stir sticks came broken. Overall, I would recommend this product, it worked well.

These are so fun, I felt a little over priced considering it is just a piece of plastic. However, I must say, drinking dry ice is incredibly dangerous and possible deadly…we are using these for decor around the bar, drinks that will not actually be consumed. Once the dry ice shrinks smaller than the size of the holes in the basket it can and WILL escape. Please do not be foolish enough to serve dry ice to your guests.

Don’t buy
