The drinks are dropped onto lab slides using a pipette, then crystallised in a process lasting three weeks.

The crystals are created in a laboratory at Florida State University - after a chemist hit on the idea of selling ties with the images to raise money for his lab. Vodka and tonic, magnified 1,000 times under a microscope.
