Who doesn’t appreciate helpful hints or shortcuts for kitchen or household tasks? Somewhere along the line, they have become considered “hacks,” an odd term.For those living in countries with seasons…like brrr, winter…some of the suggestions may not be useful for a few months. Sorry about that.

✅ Quickly chill drinks for the pool party or family soiree

Forgotten to chill drinks in advance for the soon-arriving guests?These tips are for fast chilling.

1. In a large bucket or tub, create a mixture of 50 percent water/50 percent ice. Add a handful of table salt and submerge the beverages into the solution. They will cool in about 15 minutes — the salt is the magic ingredient.
2. Or if you become desperate when the cold beer or soda runs out, try this. Use canned compressed air (IF you happen to have it in your larder) to quickly chill a tepid drink. Hold the container upside down and spray the beverage for about 30 seconds…but not too long because it’ll be too icy to imbibe.
