Held shutter release in left hand, ice cube in the other. Lots of paper towels nearby. Took many attempts to get the timing right, along with a "pleasing" splash.
I'm sure there will be other similar submissions, but I've always wanted to try a stop-action shot like this. The beverage competition seemed like a good enough reason to try it.

Nice shot. Your timing was perfect! Love the colors and the lines on the table are a great accent. Just curious, how many times did it take to get the splash this great? I'll have to look you up for that answer when voting is done.
Excellent splash and some very good detailed lighting/shadow in the glass base and stem. I think the background and choice of table top that was used doesn't work for this image.
nice job on the splash - i like the red -- don't like the table and wall -- somehow creating a background with a single color (white tablecloth maybe?) would really help IMO
