How to Cool Wine Without Ice
如何不用冰块冷藏葡萄酒

If no ice is available for cooling wine, a good method is to wrap the bottle in flannel and place it in a crock beneath the cold water tap. Allow the water to run over it, as shown in the picture, and in about ten minutes the wine will be thoroughly cool and ready for the table.
找不到冰块来冰镇葡萄酒，有一个好办法来解决这个问题。用毛巾把酒瓶包裹住，放进一个坛子里，到水龙头下面用冷水浇灌。如图所示，让冷水淋在整个酒瓶上，大约十分钟之后，葡萄酒就彻底冷冻下来了，可以上餐桌啦。
