Indeed everyone made something unique and cool. Also want to thank @yo_johann @Karthik_KK and @Ethan_Martinez for their contributions which made me waste hours today trying to search the internet and just try and come up with a way to make a disco ball look like it’s actually reflecting light like it should.

Can you explain a bit further? Googling volumetric rendering didn’t help me much. From what i was able to gather, it is not easily possible because of the way Cycles calculates raytracing.
Just to be clear: this is the kind of reflection i’m talking about https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1503218751919-1ea90572e609?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&auto=format&fit=crop&w=500&q=60
Oh, I thought you mean light beams from the sphere.
Your picture is just reflection.
So increase light intensity!
Or create a sphere of light spots …

Looking really good, maybe once I am comfortable in blender, we could make a short party animation film.

Hi Sir,
The Glass is realistic…How you do it?
Check out Tyger2’s glass recipe (It’s basically from the Blender Guru series as far as I know):

Yes, it’s straight from Blender Guru Donut Series! Not sure if that’s how @Marcello did it, but it looks similar.
Hi Nova_15
Actually i just played around with the materials of the glass, liquid and ice cubes until i was happy with it.
I would just follow the above mentioned tutorial 
One thing i found useful when playing around was this list for ior values: https://pixelandpoly.com/ior.html
