Icicle Drink Stirrer Swizzle Sticks for Smokey Drinks

Used them for my Costume Party... everyone loved them... dry ice pellets were an excellent price in town... can't wait to use them again!

Worked good a little hard to open but squeeze the center and then it opens ok.

OMG! THIS WAS A PARTY HIT! People went crazy trying to figure out this worked. It was easy and safe to use with dry ice. If you want something unique and fun this is it. Just look at my pic.

How much fun these were for our Halloween cocktails!!! We filled with little chips of dry ice after we mixed and chilled our drink. Poured into pretty glasses and served. Then gave each guest their “stick” and asked them to wait for all to stir at the same time. It was so much fun when their “witches brew” all started to fog and boil at the same time. We were as tickled as little kids, even though we are seniors. Haha

These were a HUGE hit at my Halloween party this year!!! It was like we were all little kids in science class again! I will be getting these for all of my Halloween parties in the future!

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.

I purchased these swizzles sticks for Halloween drinks for my Halloween Party. I have not used them yet, but they really seem like an awesome addition for making a drink special and to wow guest's. Very excited to use them!

Suitable. I clearly read and understood that this product DID NOT come with dry ice and called local stores to see if they carried any before purchasing. The only issues I had were, I was left with a ton of leftover dry ice because the stirrer is kind of small and only comes with 10. However, one reviewer commented having to chop the ice "fine". This was not the case for me. I was able to fit 2 or 3 small chunks. There are holes in the stirrer so it would not be possible to put fine ice in there. The second issue was I got little "smoke" effect, I got a lot of bubbling and boiling sounds which kind of worked out for me anyway but I was really aiming for a smokey "Sugar Factory" effect. FYI: Meijer's carries dry ice in IL

Good product for the price.

Your friends will love the smoky effect,

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.

These worked amazing!!! So happy to have found these!!! You do need to purchase your own dry ice!!! Used them in Harry Potter cups for a birthday party and the girls just LOVED how well their drinks smoked!!

good

These where bought for our bar at work. Worked out great

I contacted their customer service and they came through with what they promised! The swizzle sticks were a big hit at the party and it gave a nice Halloween mood to every drink served. Would definitely recommend this seller and product.Hint: use more dry ice than you think. It doesn't last as long as you would expect, refills are necessary. That's not a negative of this product, just the nature of dry ice.

Didn't know it didn't come with dry ice.

People who are giving this item a bad review because it doesn't come with dry ice clearly don't know anything about dry ice. It has a very short life outside of frozen storage. There would be no way to ship it to you. You must buy the ice at a local dealer.

I was able to create my dry ice smoke effect in my drink just as I seen at the Sugar Factory. I jist wish it provided more space. I had to really chopped the dry ice down, almost in powder form where it wouldn't be effective.

Was everything I imagined.. Will definitely purchase for my next event.

Did my homework , and found a local store that does sell dry ice pellet which is what you uses for this. We're be useing these 2 times for upcoming parties . Can't wait to uses them the kids will love it too. Also their reusable thats great ! Also saw this on Groupon but more money. Thank you for the fast shipping tooGood Job!
