A liquid container designed to include an autonomous selective cooling device and cooling device applicable to the liquid container. The cooling device includes a heat exchanger comprising a first body with a cavity, a second body inside the cavity, a fluid passage formed between an outer surface of the second body and the surface of the cavity, and some means for causing a cooling fluid to flow while expanding along fluid passage up to an exhaust duct of the second body. A container comprises a cavity for a liquid, a first filling opening provided with a first closing element and a second opening with a first coupling element where a second coupling element is coupled to the second coupling element being formed at an extension of a second closure cap and connected to the heat exchanger, in such a way that the closure cap closes the second opening of the container and the heat exchanger is housed in the cavity of the container and in contact with the liquid contained in it.
