Holiday Gift Guide: Corkcicle Review & Giveaway

I have always enjoyed a nice glass of wine with dinner and love pairing them with dishes. I like all types of wines and don't really have a favorite, though my mom prefers blush wines. She likes to keep them very cold and especially likes having a glass at the beach. The problem with bringing wine to the beach is keeping it at a cold temperature. Hot blush wine is not very good, after all. Now we have a solution: the Corkcicle!

About Corkcicle
One day Ben Hewitt, the inventor and owner of Corkcicle, decided he was through with buckets of ice to chill wine. So, he worked to make the perfect prototype for chilling wine. Thanks to his hard work and help of friends to market his work, you can purchase a Corkcicle to help keep your wine chilled and delicious without the ice from a bucket getting the label all soggy and making a huge wet mess.

Just pop out the cork for your wine and replace with the Corkcicle! It's as easy as that and retails for only $24.95.

My Thoughts
I've seen Corkcicles at the store in the past, but I had no idea what they were. Once I read more about them, I had to have one! All I needed to do was place the Corkcicle in the freezer until frozen. Then, when I open my bottle of chilled wine, I replace the cork with the Corkcicle instead. How simple is that?

Freezing our Corkcicle

I think this is such a creative and useful invention! I always replace the corks with decorated corks and now I can replace them with a colorful Corkcicle that will also keep it cool. Plus, I love the great colors they now offer. I received the blue Corkcicle, which is my favorite color, but there are many other colors and stoppers with designs from which to choose!
