Drink at an Ice Bar

“When you order your first drink, you have to first buy the ice glass for 25 SEK (about £2.50 GBP), the drinks were a further 85SEK (about £8.00-YIKES!). This isn’t just ICEBAR though, Scandinavia is exceptionally expensive for alcoholic beverages! You can order as many drink refills as you wanted in the same glass until either you abandoned the glass at the end of the night, or it melts with your body’s heat. Most drinks were vodka based, since vodka wont freeze. After 3 drinks, The heat from my lips had worn the rim of my glass pretty thin. I think 5 drinks would have been about the maximum before it started to look like the glass was smiling back at me.”

“It was a wicked experience – literally so cool. We were given fur(-ish) jackets and gloves before entering and the cocktails were served in ice glasses so slippery you needed two hands to hold them! The sculptures were amazing and beautifully lit up, giving us some great opportunities to pose with them for photographs. Jodes summed the experience up best as ‘Chilly Fun’.”
