Why Does Ice Always Rush Toward Your Face When You Take a Drink?
You know the moment.
You tip back a glass of iced water, soda, tea, or your favorite cocktail. Everything is fine for the first few seconds — and then suddenly, the entire pile of ice slides forward at once.
Now you're either dodging ice cubes, getting splashed, or trying to take a sip through a wall of ice.
The Ice Avalanche Problem
Ice floats, which means it naturally collects near the surface of your drink. As you tilt your glass, gravity causes those loose cubes to shift toward the rim.
The farther you tilt, the more likely they are to slide together.
It's a small annoyance, but if you're someone who loves a lot of ice in your drinks, it happens constantly.
People have come up with plenty of ways to deal with it: using a straw, holding the ice back with your lip, drinking around the cubes, or simply using less ice.
But what if you like drinking directly from the glass and you like your drinks ice cold?
That's exactly why SipStrainer™ was created.
A Simple Way to Keep Ice Back
SipStrainer™ is a reusable clip-on beverage strainer designed to hold ice back while still allowing your drink to flow through.
Just clip it onto the rim of your glass and drink normally.
There's no straw to use, no lid to screw on, and no need to change the way you make your drink. The strainer creates a simple barrier between you and the ice while allowing liquid to pass through.
It's especially useful for heavily iced drinks like:
-
Ice water
-
Iced tea
-
Soda
-
Lemonade
-
Mixed drinks and cocktails
-
Any drink where you want the ice to stay in the glass instead of rushing toward your face
Why Not Just Use a Straw?
You certainly can.
But not everyone likes drinking from a straw, and some drinks simply feel better when you drink them directly from the glass.
SipStrainer™ was designed for those moments.
You still get the experience of drinking normally from your glass — just without having to fight the ice every time you take a sip.
Small Problem. Simple Solution.
Some of the most useful products don't solve enormous problems.
They solve those little annoyances you experience over and over again.
SipStrainer™ started with one of those moments: trying to enjoy an ice-cold drink without getting hit in the face with ice.
The result is a simple, reusable product that's easy to clip on whenever you need it and remove when you don't.
SipStrainer™ is made in the USA from durable, food-contact polypropylene (PP) and is designed to fit most standard 16 oz cups, pint glasses, and similarly sized drinkware.
So go ahead and load up your glass with ice.
