Yeah, my father was a physicist, took us to his lab once, froze a piece of rubber tubing in the liquid nitrogen and smashed it - it’s just insane to use it in bar drinks.

I HAVE put dry ice in drinks - a little chip to chill and carbonate it but I didn’t put the dry ice in my mouth and there is a difference of 120 deg C after all...

I sometimes use dry ice to revive a flat 2 liter bottle ... but it stinks for cooling a regular drink ,, for some reason it just doesn’t transfer the cold very well.. simple crushed wet ice is best.. I was at a trade show where they were selling a setup for making ice cream using LN2 ... but that was pretty safe ,, fogger type spray into the mixing bowl ... YUMMY!
