Make Your Own Ice Pack

Original post: Make your own shapeable ice pack

To make your own shapeable ice pack, mix 1 part rubbing alcohol with 3 parts water in a ziploc bag and put in the freezer. The alcohol will prevent the water from freezing completely. When it’s frozen, wrap with a towel or cloth of some sort and apply. If the mixture freezes too hard, just add a little more alcohol.  If it’s too slushy, add a little more water.


Me: I made 6 of these when The Teenager had his wisdom teeth taken out. They work like a gem!  I double bagged them so if they leaked, it wouldn’t get all over.  They are really awesome!
