WineHacker - Instant Drip Ring

Tired of the ring of wine that gets on the counter or table while serving wine? You know, because a drip got down the neck of the bottle while you were socializing at a party. There are nice drip rings you can buy and other accessories and for formal dining occasions they're probably the right way to go. But for bigger parties a paper towel is all you need! Simple, fast, and cheap. So you can mingle without worrying about the ring-around-the-counter.
  1. Take a run of the mill paper towel.
  2. Roll it up into a thin tube.
  3. Tie it in a knot with a hole large enough for the neck of the bottle
  4. Voi-la! instant drip ring.
If you're having alot of people over there's a good chance that more than one bottle of wine will be open and even the most courteous guests don't think about the wine drip occasionally. All you need is a couple of paper towels and you're all set. Enjoy the Wine Life!
