Drinks Beetler

Stefan and Gustaf were home recovering from their recent encounter with the Hindu mystic and her dreaded Kaligraphic printer.

Stefan offered Gustaf a drink. After assembling the various contents for one of his famously elaborate cocktails, he turned his back on his friend, reached into a drawer and picked out something he had just acquired. As he turned around, Gustaf stared at the shiny instrument Stefan was now holding.

It was about the size of a small Maglite torch, from one end of which a long flexible stalk dangled expectantly.

Before Gustaf could make another comment, Stefan reached into another box and produced what appeared to be a small beetle, which he proceeded to fit unto the end of the flexible drive.

"It's my drinks beetler" explained Stefan triumphantly. "Want to see how it works?" Without waiting for a reply Stefan lowered the beetle into the cocktail glass and switched it on. Immediately on contact, its legs and feelers sprang into mechanical life, thrashing the bright liquid into a satisfying foam as they struggled and beat furiously against the sides of the glass.

"That was fun". "Yep, and it's easy to clean - you just lower it into soapy water, and switch it on again for a few seconds." "What else is in the box?" "Well it comes with the beetle you just saw, along with a fish, a small bird, a centipede and a human finger."

Drinks Beetlers are available in any colour. Other attachments are under consideration.
