There are only so many turkey sandwiches we can eat! As well as the surplus of food, we wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve also got a few half-full bottles of wine leftover in the fridge or cupboards. Getty Images It turns out that drinking the wine isn’t your only option to avoid wasting it. Someone on TikTok (aka the source of so many genius hacks) has found a great way to keep wine fresh, so it can be used later. The simple trick involves pouring the leftover wine into ice cube trays, which then go into the freezer. That’s right, you can even freeze wine to preserve it. Just make sure you check the ice cube tray properly before accidentally adding a wine cube to your glass of water. The nifty hack was posted from a TikTok account belonging to home and kitchenware brand Swan (@swanbranduk). The woman in the video explains that frozen wine can be used in the future, for cooking things like chilli con carne, pasta sauces, risotto, cottage pie and hearty stews. All you have to do is add the wine ice cube, rather than opening a whole bottle when all you need is a splash. @swanbranduk Leftover wine from Christmas?
