Life Hacks That Actually Work

DIY Beer Koozie

This beer koozie hack is the ultimate DIY. Not many beaches allow folks to bring alcoholic drinks, which can ruin the fun! A lot of people want to relax on the beach with an ice-cold beer (or wine cooler). The hack? Take an old soda can, cut out the top and bottom, and wrap it around the beer. The beach patrol folks won't notice a thing! Just drink responsibly, and throw out your trash!
