Clur Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 For those of you intending to use Cinnamon's recipe for cranberry vodka: Slom Bottle (like the Grolsch beer bottle tops): http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50108908 - £1.49 each Branas Baskets: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/70028048 - on the website these are advertied as £3.59 each, but Ikea in Wembley had them reduced to 99p! I'll be working on my gift hampers this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 OH would divorce me if I brought anything from Ikea But thats another story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Oooo, may just have to tootle up there again! Went to the Croydon one a couple of weeks ago & they had sold out of the Grolsch bottles - most inconvenient as they were half the reason for trekking up there (can't wait for the Southampton branch to open !!!) Am probably going to Gatwick for a 9am pickup on Sunday, so could just nip across then - not sure what my friend's daughter will make of that but that's a bridge I'll cross then!! I've been & bought a few bottles in Oil & Vinegar, but would prefer the Grolsch seal I think, and those baskets caught my eye too would be an all-round winner to visit & actually get both of these items. Does anyone know if they would put things by at Ikea? It's a long way from Chichester (if I don't go from Gatwick on Sunday) if I'm going to be disappointed again.....

Chook n Boo Mum Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Thanks DA, would be the perfect solution if these items were available on line ! Will have to ask a friend who's mum lives fairly near a branch to pop in for me if I don't go. Sha x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I got some of those last year, & while they are very nice they are quite big - one lot of Cranberry Vodka fills one bottle with a little left over. Which of course would need to be consumed right away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthmam1 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Hi Where do I find the recipe for Cinnamons cranberry vodka? Ikea is opening in southampton in the early new year . I live near Southampton - Ikea is in the middle of town and will be extremely busy especially with all the cruise liners arriving and departing . When I have a opening date I will post it on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 This thread reminded me I need some more of these bottles. We could have gone today but James wasn't with us. His face is going to light right up when I tell him we are going to Ikea on Friday! I wonder if he will grow up to be an interior designer??? Actually its just the kids club and the food that he likes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Oh yeah, I am with him there. Chips & mayonnaise,then Dime bar cheesecake to follow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenGirl Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 The bottles aren't available online, and I have just ordered everything for the Christmas vodka Does anyone know anywhere else that does bottles that would suit? I have ordered, umm, quite large volumes to make it I am stuck in until I am well enough to drive again, so thought I would make the most of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I got some sweet little bottles from Oil & Vinegar, I think their range starts from about £2. Nice little baskets too at a fairly reasonable price - thanks to Cinnamon & Christian for the recommendation ! Will decant mine over the next few days as my pup is being spayed tomorrow - following the ripping of her leg on a collapsed barbed wire fence yesterday, her op was brought forward from next week to tomorrow, so the vet can keep an eye on the wound, poor little mite .

Christian Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Does anyone know anywhere else that does bottles that would suit? I have ordered, umm, quite large volumes to make it Oil and vinegar do good ones GG, but not sure where the nearest one to Camberley is? Guildford? What about Kitchen Kapers in Camberley? At the end of the High street? Opposite Toni and Guy. They do everything kitchen and I was a regular visitors when I lived that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
