ABSTRACT:
A drinking glass liner (20) is utilized to retain ice pieces within a drinking glass (10) and permit a liquid entrapped within the ice pieces to drain away from the ice pieces. The drinking glass liner comprises a mesh sheet (22) having a textured front side (24), interconnected links (32) which define openings (34), and ridges (44) extending outwardly from a back side (26). Protrusions (38) optionally may extend outwardly from the front side to additionally retard movement of ice pieces. The ridges are provided to create a gap (46) between an inner surface (14) of the drinking glass and the back side to enable the liquid to freely flow away from the ice pieces.
