Ice…slams into your teeth?

Just pucker your lips a bit and use the top one to block the ice. I’m trying to think through how I drink from a glass of ice water or iced coffee and I’m relatively confident that’s how I do it…

Okay I tried it out. My upper lip blocks the ice. Sometimes if I open my mouth more a cube will tap my teeth, but only gently because it was already held by the lip until then. The only way I could get ice to slam into my teeth was to like, hold my lip up in a sneer and just let the ice hit my teeth. But my instinctual ice-water-drinking method is to block ice with lip.

Give it a try! Might change your life, cold ice water is fucking awesome.

I think I might have a weird shaped mouth haha. To be honest I usually find ice cold drinks to also be too cold overall and painful on my throat. I drink any fluid like someone who just walked a day in a desert with no water...

Actually, you know what I do like ice in? My hot drinks! I put a few cubes per cup of hot coffee or tea so I can drink it NOW, not in 20 minutes when it's safe consumption temperature but I'll have forgotten where the hell I put the mug

Fair enough, lol. I got a good chuckle out of the image of downing any drink by just dumping the whole thing straight down your throat. 😂

I can literally do that lmao. Feels awesome when you're extremely dehydrated. Probably not good for you though

I can gulp like a champ, but I've got nothing on this
