Infuse your refreshments
From water (or vodka) infused with cucumber or lemon to sangria, nothing says summer like a fresh and fruity beverage. And while you may be familiar with traditional infusing techniques, ProDyne's clever compartmentalized pitchers allow you to mix up yummy concoctions without excess seeds, rinds or a mess. Simply fill the small capsule with fruit and the large capsule with liquid; then sit back relax and enjoy your favorite flavors ($19.99, bedbathandbeyond.com).
Lock your liquor
Whether you have small children or just a roommate who can't be trusted around your bottle of booze, Lock Your Liquor is a smart solution to the problem! The combination lock fits snuggly onto almost all bottle tops, including wine and soda, and can't be removed without the 4-digit combination ($15.99, gokeyless.com).
