Abstract: A cooled beverage carafe serving apparatus is provided for cooling and serving and for continued cooling of beverage while it is waiting to be served, particularly adapted for beverage of the so-called white alcohol types, such as vodka, which are not desired to be diluted. A carafe has an elongated neck extending upwardly from a rounded, convex curvature, bulbous body portion, and the neck acts as a handle in handling the carafe holding the beverage which is to be cooled and served. This full carafe is initially placed into a container (for acting as a mold) having a larger diameter than that of the bulbous body portion of the carafe, and the container is filled with water to a level considerably above the level of the largest cross-sectional dimension of the body portion. Since the bulbous body portion is almost spherical it may be considered to have an equator at a level approximately one half of the way up from the bottom of the region where the neck joins the body portion.
