TV star Shelly Horton (pictured) explained how to chill wine in just ten minutes. In an Instagram video, she wrapped the bottle in a wet towel and put it in the freezer.


Ten minutes later, Shelly took the bottle out of the freezer and found the towel had frozen a bit, leaving some cold wine.
Shelly then took the bottle out of the freezer and found it slightly frozen, leaving some cold wine on the towel.
The trick is ideal if you forgot to chill the alcohol before welcoming guests or enjoying a Friday night drink.
It is believed that when the moisture in the towel evaporates, it cools the bottle faster.
White wine and sparkling wine should be chilled before serving, while red wine should be served at room temperature.
The video got more than 11,000 views in one night, and many people thanked Shelly for sharing the trick.
‘How will I find out now?!’ Someone wrote the comments.
Another added: “You really are beyond saving”
Others have called the proposal “incredible,” and many can’t wait to try it out for themselves.
