How To Make Fake Drinks

If you want to make fake drinks for stage props or a photo shoot, you'll want to use materials that hold up under harsh lighting. Local craft stores will have a product called 'artificial water' in the floral department that you can mix with food coloring. Add artificial ice cubes, and you're all set!

Fake drinks can be made of modeling clay or spray foam. The material can be pressed into a mold to form the shape of the glass and liquid. Then, it can be painted to realistically look like a drink.
