Drinking Vessel

Abstract

The invention provides a drinking vessel into which dry ice can be placed in order to produce fog above the beverage. In order to prevent the pieces of dry ice from being swallowed, a second bottom is inserted into the drinking vessel after the dry ice was placed therein. The second bottom features holes that are permeable to the beverage, but not permeable to the pieces of dry ice. Consequently, the beverage comes in contact with the dry ice such that fog is created while the dry ice is simultaneously prevented from rising to the surface.

1 . A drinking vessel, comprising a second bottom with holes and insertable into the drinking vessel filled with dry ice such that the dry ice is covered by the second bottom, wherein the holes are permeable to a beverage, but not permeable to the dry ice. 
   
   
       2 . The drinking vessel according to  claim 1 , wherein the holes have a diameter of approximately 1 mm to approximately 5 mm. 
   
   
       3 . The drinking vessel according to  claim 1 , wherein the second bottom can be snapped into the drinking vessel. 
   
   
       4 . The drinking vessel according to  claim 1 , wherein the second bottom can be screwed into the drinking vessel. 
   
   
       5 . The drinking vessel according to  claim 1 , wherein the second bottom comprises a dome-shape, having an edge which can be engaged on a circumference of a bottom of the drinking vessel. 
   
   
       6 . The drinking vessel according to  claim 1 , wherein the drinking vessel and the second bottom are made of plastic. 
   
   
       7 . The drinking vessel according to  claim 1 , wherein the drinking vessel comprises a corrugated wall at least in a lower region of the drinking vessel.
