"That would be about 20-25 minutes in a freezer. If you put it in a bucket of ice, that would halve that time. If you put water in that ice, it'd be cold (+- 5c) enough to drink in about 4-6 minutes, if you put salt in that water, you'd reduce the chill time to just over 2 minutes. Agitating the can in the water, rolling it around, reduces the chill time even more.

So, take about 1/2 an hour of preparation, and you can freeze the can in 2 minutes. :haha:

If you take a warm can and place it in a bed of ice, and spin it, maintaining contact against the ice, it will be well chilled it two minutes.

There is a mechanical device that does just that, the only place I have seen the device for sale is in the parking lot at Jimmy Buffet shows, the same crowd that brought you the gas powered blender. :drink:

grab your Igloo lunch box... place your favorite 6 pack of brewskis in it... grab the Halon fire extinguisher you stole from the electricians yesterday... give the inside of the cooler a good shot... close lid... wait a few moments... amaze your friends and become a lliving legend on the jobsite!!
