Way to stay cool-frozen drinks without the bar

You know what I've been doing?

I put a glass with whatever-coffee, tomato juice, water, wine! and put it in the freezer for a little while.Then when you take it out, it's like a cool slush with shaved ice.

I'm going to do this all summer long and maybe the winter too!

@Kachina624,

No that's a good idea. I just keep letting the coffee in the coffee maker cool after adding stuff.

@on the bay    I'm not much of a coffee drinker and instant is all I have on hand.  However, I love iced coffee so I might try it.

I have a Nespresso travel mug I got free with coffee with double stainless walls that I keep in the fridge and when I want an iced latte I put cold milk in the bottom, the espresso shots next, then put ice in and stir and it stays cold longer.

 

I also put things like tomato juice and a little ice in the Vitamix then in that mug and it stays cold a long time.

 

Anything helps doesn't it???

I mix up a batch of margaritas, pour it into mason jars and keep in freezer. Frozen margarita whenever you want one  😁
