No corkscrew nearby? Open your wine bottle with a fire

Of course, if you find yourself in a situation where you don’t have a corkscrew at hand, you have a big problem. How are you going to open a wine bottle with a cork? Well, from now on opening a wine bottle without a corkscrew will never be an issue again! The only thing you should have at hand is a lighter. With this, you can open the wine bottle.

Hold your wine bottle at the bottom and heat the neck of the bottle with your lighter. Hold the flame just below the cork until the cork comes up. When the cork finally sticks out an inch or two, you can pull the last piece out with your hands. It’s that easy!

I say cheers to another wine-tastic life hack!
