Sep 9 2008How To Really Make Drinks 'On The Rocks'

Am I first to say....hard ass?

they look cool. but i would probably have a bloody nose by the second swig.

roly-poly. haha.

Silliness...Absolut neat, thank you very much.

I like to chew my ice.

stupid

Um... Glass + Rocks + Booze = ER visit & funny ass story

@5, I had the same thought. Can you imagine getting hammered and then trying to chew one of them up? You'd be spitting teeth and blood for an hour.

Reminds me of the time I got really high at a party and was dipping chips in dip and eating them. I kept thinking to myself, wow, this dip is terrible! It took me about 7 chips to realize I was dipping them into a bowl of flour. Talk about cotton mouth!

I guess there is more then one way to get stoned while drinking.

I thought I was the only one who called those little bugs roly polies!

I've tried these and the rocks are actually soft (you can easily cut them with a knife) so even if you chewed them they would simply break in your mouth, you would be chewing mud though :P

The problem with these is that since they break so easily that every single time i used them small pieces would break off and float around in the glass.
I'll stick to regular ice :P

I have set of these, and no, they don't break. But I guess you could cut them with a knife. I absolutely love them. They cool your whisky, but doesn't dillute it. I beleive mine are called "Whisky on the rocks rocks". They have a high temperature coefficient, and are made of the same stuff we like to put around our fireplaces here in the cold cold north.

arent they porous? wont that make them retain flavors? i dont want my jim kool-aid tasting like my popov.
But these things just gave me the greatest idea!!! Why dont you freeze water into cubes and put them in your drink instead? They wont hurt your teeth, they melt so itll get cold faster, and theyre not porous. OMG I AM A GENIUS. i think im gonna call my new invention COLD CUTS. What do you morons think?

@11 & 12 .. What the hell kind of rocks are you able to cut with a knife? No seriously. What the hell kind of rock is it? Huh? What the hell? What the hell sort of rock can be cut with a knife? What the hell? Huh? Please what the hell tell me? Huh?

If you are mixing the drink you can always freeze the mixer (coke, club soda, etc) into ice cubes...
They also make plastic ice cubes that aren't porous and blah blah blah

WTF- why isn't the booze in the freezer already if you like it cold?

How long before some drunken buffoon chokes to death on these babies then, huh?

#14: Not cut through it like a piece of bread, more like make a scratch. They're not rock hard like ..ummm....rocks. Or something.

In norwegian the stone is called kleberstein, and it translates to steatite or potstone.

Its like that scene from Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

ooh i see. well thank you for clearing that up for me... and "potstone"?
that is officially my new favorite rock.
