This Christmas serve your cocktails in nice tall clear glasses. As you come to each guest you can reach into the ice bucket with your metal forceps and drop in a set of dentures, complete with pink gums.
At least that's what they look like, but they're just a novelty set you prepared earlier using your new Frozen To the Back Teeth ice cube making kit.
The kit includes moulds, for top and bottom dentures, along with two harmless food dies to stain the water. You begin by filling the moulds up to the gum line with white coloured water. When this has been frozen, you top it up with pink stain for the gums and freeze again.
For added realism you can add an effervescent tablet to the drinks, releasing a steam of bubbles that merrily swirl around the melting molars.
Cheers everyone.-- xenzag, Dec 11 2006 made me smile [+]-- pertinax, Dec 11 2006 I've been making martinis - I'm sure this could work in somwhow.-- normzone, Dec 11 2006 Hear them chatter as you chatter.

Come out and fight like the slime mould you know you are.-- xenzag, Dec 12 2006 Bravo! me likes! +-- twitch, Dec 12 2006 It'd be an even better prank to play on your grandad!-- snap'n'whipher, Dec 13 2006 Why stop with teeth? How about miniature frozen corpses of Arctic explorers? Ah, another Captain Scott in my gin and tonic, if you'd be so kind.
No offence - I like it - but aren't novelty-shaped ice cubes something that exists already?-- neuro, Dec 14 2006 This is nasty. +-- nomocrow, Dec 14 2006 This is really creative! I like the idea but wouldn't like to drink anything with any body parts in it. Bravo.-- Cintani, Dec 14 2006 I like the severed finger idea better.-- twitch, Dec 14 2006 //I like the severed finger idea better.// the problem with making ice cubes out of other body parts lies with colour, definition, and what I would call iconic recognition. Teeth are always emotive, and would still be recognisable, even as half melted stumps.-- xenzag, Dec 14 2006 And everyone knows what happens when you put teeth in a soda....-- MoreCowbell, Dec 15 2006 random, halfbakery
