Dry Ice Christmas Party Ideas
The Christmas season is officially here. Even if you started celebrating the winter holidays since November 1, the incentive to party is more than ever as we enter December. In planning a Christmas party, you will want to make it as full of holiday cheer as possible. Are you surprised that dry ice can help you out here? Below are several dry ice Christmas party ideas you can use this year.
Christmas Cocktails
There are many recipes out on the Internet on how to create a delicious Christmas cocktail. To add just a little more flair to the drink, add a piece of dry ice to each serving. The dry ice will sublimate, and its famous fog will rise and overflow from the glass. Make sure that all the dry ice disappears before taking a drink; contact with the substance can cause severe burns, especially if ingested. When handling the dry ice, remember to wear protective gloves or use tongs. Never handle dry ice with your bare hands. When done properly, you and your guests can enjoy smoking cocktails that liven the scene.
Christmas Punch
Even so, there is no need to leave out minors from the dry ice Christmas party fun. In the summertime, one can make root beer, fizzy drinks, and even carbonated fruit by mixing in dry ice. Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, after all, the very thing that makes liquids bubbly. The same can be done at Christmas time. Why not? Turn Christmas punch into a frosty, fizzy beverage by adding dry ice and letting it sublimate.
Reliable Refrigerant
Even if the billowing vapors are too showy for your taste, you can still find that dry ice is a lifesaver for keeping perishable items frozen. If you are without a freezer or need to ship food items during the holidays, dry ice is your answer to keeping your goods fresh. When housing dry ice, make sure that you keep it in an insulated container with space to let the carbon dioxide gas go free. Place the dry ice at the bottom of the cooler, put cardboard, newspaper, or towel on top, and then put your perishables on top of that. If you ship your goods with dry ice, follow the necessary packaging directions.
