Instead, why not put CO2 dry-ice cubes in your drink? Or a spritz of liquid nitrogen? Or drop in a shot glass of liquid helium? Or super-cooled metal balls?

- mikeash 13y agoDry ice will, ironically, make your soda go completely flat as it constantly agitates the drink as it boils/sublimes away.
- Groxx 13y agobut it'll make water pretty carbonated (though not to soda's level). or at least have the same bitter, bubbly flavor (never really looked up if that's actually what happens)
- nealabq 13y agoCubes of frozen alcohol might work. Maybe with a little frozen C02 mixed in for certain drinks.
- mikeash 13y agoI love it! Now I just have to figure out how to generate a temperature cold enough to do it.
- jerf 13y agoOne of the other problems is that if you cool too quickly, you get an ice layer around the cooling, which then inhibits you from cooling any further. (Note I say "inhibits", not "prevents".)
