The Original Shot Flask

The Original Shot Flask

Drinking is an activity best shared with others. Booze flasks are a portable drinking conveyance meant for one. However shall the two concepts come together?

Enter The Original Shot Flask.

The flask has an 8 ounce capacity and hides a collapsible 2 ounce shot glass that stores directly into the side of the flask.

Finally a way to share without sharing everything. Cheers!

Kikkerland Rocket Tea Infuser

Kikkerland Rocket Tea Infuser and Drip Tray

Tea for two… to the moon! The Kikkerland Rocket Tea Infuser and Drip Tray will take you places. Or at least it will take you straight up as you wake up. The stainless steel tea gadget features an awesome rocket design and clips on to the side of a tea cup or mug. When the nitro brew is fully steeped, just pluck out the spaceship and set it down on the included drip tray.

Sorry, galaxy shown not included.

InStirring Self Stirring Mugs And Glasses

InStirring Self-stirring Old Fashioned Glasses

Drinking is not an active sport. Why else would there be bars where people are paid (and tipped) to mix, pour and stir drinks for you? I can think of no other reason except that stirring must be hard. Luckily, for those that prefer to be by themselves when drinking alone (well, duh…) there is another option.

The InStirring Self-stirring Old Fashioned Glasses come in a set of two and do all the hard work normally reserved for a bartender. The inside of these glasses are ribbed with special protrusions or wings that act to stir the liquids inside. Pour in the booze and a mixer, give the cup a twist and the vaned interior swirls the liquids together. Then it’s just a matter of finding somebody to toast with.

Also available for the hangover the next day: InStirring Cups, Coffee Mugs and Glasses.

Handy Gourmet Forever Fizz 2 Liter Soda Dispenser

Handy Gourmet JB6066 Forever Fizz

Dear Soda People,

Drink carefully.

Reviewers seem to hate this thing. The thing? The Handy Gourmet JB6066 Forever Fizz.

They say:

At first glance I thought it might be fun. I am into interesting gadgets. But this is not a useful gadget. It’s not even an interesting toy. It is a complete waste of money. If you should wind up with one of these, hopefully through no fault of your own, be sure you do all your experimenting in the kitchen sink. No you don’t have to do it in the shower. There is no real pressure. There is no gushing out of your soda. There is no fun.
— john the artist

Ouch.

So then, where do all the unsold units go?

Why to the dark corners of Amazon, where all those bad reviews magically disappear.
Listed for $2.83 $2.50 as the Coke Fizzy Soda Drinking Dispense Gadget Cool Dispenser, the failed product will live on and on and on and…

Sincerely, Beyond The Kitchen Sink

PS: Yikes! Fifteen one star reviews (and two very suspect 5 star reviews) over on QVC where they are branded as the K25916 – Prepology Set of 2 Fizz Saver 2-Liter Soda Dispensers.

Zing Anything Citrus Zinger

Zing Anything Citrus Zinger

The portable water bottle has become common sight seemingly everywhere. (This would make sense, being portable and all…) The good news is that they offer an easy way to stay hydrated without the need to shell out cold hard cash while on the go. The bad news is water comes in only one flavor.

The Zing Anything Citrus Zinger (aka ZingAnything CitrusZinger) is a go-to solution for making a flavored water solution on the go. Combining a citrus reamer with a water bottle that is designed for portability, the beverage enhancer makes it easy to make your own hydrating concoction. Just screw a citrus half into the base and away you go.

For those that appreciate a little non-citrus fruit in their drink, these guys also make the Aqua Zinger, which is designed to masticate berries, herbs and really anything else that has flavor locked inside. But either version that works for you, really works for you, because don’t forget: refills are free!
