QUESTION
- “Will
these really chill the Liquor?”
ANSWER
- Yes, it is ice.
(I'm serious people actually ask this.) |
|
QUESTION
- “How
long before the ShotRock melts?”
ANSWER
- Using a
pre-chilled liquor, you can get 20 minutes out of them. If you use room
temperature liquor you better drink them within 5 minutes. |

| QUESTION
- “Can
I Put a Logo on the ShotRock?”
ANSWER
- No, it is
basically impossible to put a logo in the ice. A raised or lowered surface
in the ice would create a “key” that would lock the ice cube into the
mold, making it impossible to release. To deal with this, we have made it
possible to silk screen your logo on the serving tray. |

QUESTION
- “Do you have any
smaller ShotRocks available?”
ANSWER
- Nope! The ShotRock is a perfect size. It holds 1 oz. of your favorite
beverage. The size was scientifically developed after extensive testing
(no laboratory assistants were injured in the process.) Plus, if they were
any smaller it would take you twice as long to start having fun! |

larger ShotRocks available?”
ANSWER

beverage. The size was scientifically developed, if they were any larger
you would start having fun too soon! |

QUESTION
- “Don't they get stuck
to your lips? If not, I would like to know how you overcame this problem
that all the ice that I know seems to have.”
ANSWER
- If you are concerned about the ShotRock sticking to your lips, we
suggest that you pre- lubricate your lips with one of the following
techniques:
- Dip your pinky
finger into the contents of the ShotRock and apply the liquid to your
lips in a gentle sweeping motion. Be sure to insert your pinky finger
into your mouth and suck the remaining liquid off of your finger
making a “ lip-smacking” noise as you remove your finger from your
mouth. This is not only effective, but it also makes quite a social
statement when you are in a mixed group of people.
- As an alternative,
carefully insert the tip of your tongue into the contents of the
ShotRock and slowly lick your lips in a circular motion. ( This is as
effective as the first method, less messy and if your tongue is long
enough will prove to impress members of the opposite sex. How many
other social situations allow you to show off your tongue prowess
without seeming weird?)
- The final method is
a derivative of method (2) but can lead to some quite interesting
situations... This method involves asking someone else to perform
method (2) on you. An easy way to approach this situation is:
“I am
concerned this unique ice glass will stick to my lips, will you dip your
tongue in the liquid and apply a generous portion to my lips? This is
strictly for safety reasons. Oh... and I can’t do this my self because
my tongue is so long and flexible it might frighten some of the others.” |
