But even experienced folks said it isn't always easy.

It may take a couple of tries to pour your toast from the sharp edges of sabor cut bottle.

The Skidmores explained how to use a sabor to strike the seam and the lip.

They said the key is to make sure you put the bottle on ice or in the freezer upside down beforehand.

The colder the bottler, the cleaner the break.

The couple are ringing in the New Year around a campfire at Refugio State Beach campground.
