Ice Spheres

Okay, so those things are supposed to produce a superior drink because there's a smaller surface area to volume ratio, therefore less melting, therefore a less diluted drink. But if there's less surface area...that means that there's less surface area for the drink to cool down on, right? So either you have to increase the size of the sphere so you have an equal surface area/cooling area as before (which means that there's actually MORE potential for a diluted drink, since there would be even MORE total volume of water available) or you're not cooling your drink as much, which defeats the point. What's the deal here?

I think they mostly use the spheres at bars. Someone might run off with your rocks, plus it'd be expensive to buy enough for everyone's drink to have them.

Check it, spheres have the best SA to V ratio:

You're drunk on scotch and drinking from a glass with rocks in it, sure what could go wrong?

That's assuming that the ability of the ice to absorb heat is PURELY a function of it's surface area, while I'd say purity(air content) and possibly other things would factor in.

a pro alcoholic has his drink finished before anything melts,
but spheres are always cool with me, especially these ones. harhar.
