The Baby Flask Is the Best Way to Sneak Booze

Posted on by

Pure genius Instructables user mikeasaurus has created step-by-step instructions detailing how to create a Baby Flask, a doll baby in a chest-mounted baby carrier you can fill with booze. A lot of booze too. Goodbye, hip flask, hello, Baby Flask!

The Baby Flask consists of a baby carrier holding a doll with all its stuffing removed and replaced with a 2-liter hydration bladder. The straw from the bladder comes out of the baby’s forehead, so it looks like you’re just kissing your baby on the head whenever you’re drinking. As far as genius inventions go, this might actually rival the wheel or inclined plane.

As Mike points out, if anyone asks to see your baby, you can just dismiss them with a “Shhhh, she’s sleeping.” Of course, that may be easier said than done, considering I already had a baby carrier and hydration bladder but no doll, so I had to use a Godzilla toy instead. Fingers crossed that everyone just thinks it’s a really ugly baby.

Stainless Steel Rocket Cocktail Shaker: For out of This World Mixed Drinks

Posted on by

Designed by drinkware manufacturer Viski, the Rocket Cocktail Shaker (affiliate link) is a 24-ounce stainless steel drink shaker in the form of a retro rocket. I can already see myself holding a highly-anticipated countdown to happy hour. 3…2…1…blastoff!

This would be the perfect shaker for a space-themed bar. Or an actual bar in outer space. Do we have those yet? I thought the 2020s were supposed to be the future. This sure doesn’t look like the future. Where’s my hoverboard? Where’s my jetpack? I feel like every single 1980s and ’90s movie about the future lied to us. Curse you, Back To The Future II!


Could you imagine if James Bond insisted that not only his martinis were shaken, but shaken in a Rocket Cocktail Shaker? People would think he’s crazy. Or drunk. But they definitely wouldn’t think he’s a spy, so mission accomplished.

Hip Flask Nunchucks: For a Drunken Master

Posted on by

Weapons and booze: as a general rule, they don’t mix well together. But did that stop Anvirtue from producing these hip flask nunchucks? No, it did not. I can already feel the welt on my leg swelling because I tried showing off my amateur nunchuck skills after emptying both flasks down my gullet.

Available on Amazon (affiliate link), the flaskchucks are constructed from stainless steel and feature leak-proof screw-top seals. Unfortunately for anybody looking for a flask with decent carrying capacity, each individual tube only holds 40mL (~1.35oz), for a total of about two shots of liquor. That is not very much liquor. That is more than enough blood for a magic potion though.

When reached for comment about the nunchucks, famed Ninja Turtle and party animal Michelangelo informed me he doesn’t drink, but he doubts these would be much use against the Foot Clan. He also smacked my hand with a real nunchuck when I reached for a slice of his pizza.

Make Your Own Moonshine With This Copper Still Starter Kit

Posted on by

You know, I was just thinking the other day maybe I should start making my own liquor. I was just going to use the bathtub, but then I saw this 5 Gallon Pure Copper Alembic Still built by Copperholic and available for sale on Amazon (affiliate link). The traditional still costs $400 and comes with everything needed to get you up and bootlegging in no time. I can already close my eyes and imagine I’ve gone blind after drinking a bad batch.

Liquor not your cup of tea? You can also use the still for hydro or steam distillation of essential oils. Those are all the rage right now, you know. I’m going to set up a booth at the farmer’s market and make a fortune selling my own home-distilled essential oils above the table, and rotgut liquor beneath the table. Cha-ching!

I don’t really understand the process of moonshining, but I’m sure the internet can point me in the right direction. Or, as is the case more often than not, the very wrong direction. Either way, come over in about ten days because I am going to need a taste-tester.

Pour Your Booze into the Minibar Guitar Effect Pedal and Get It Drunk

Posted on by

Do you like to have a drink while you’re playing the guitar? Well, if you’ve got any booze left over, you can now put it to good use as part of your performance. Yep, this unique guitar effects pedal is designed to sip liquids and uses them to influence its sounds.

Simply unscrew the watertight lid on its top, pour the beverage of your choice into the Rainger FX Minibar Liquid Analyzer, and the conductive properties of said liquid will be used by its circuit to affect signal gain. In addition, the opacity of your drink will affect the equalization of the sound.

So your IPA will sound dramatically different than your chocolate stout, and your Kentucky bourbon will most definitely make different sounds than your Highlands single malt scotch. It works with other kinds of liquids too, like soda pop, coffee, or even nail polish remover.

The Minibar stomp pedal is available direct from Rainger FX for roughly $150. Booze not included.
