Summer is right around the corner and nothing tastes better on a hot summer day than a refreshing, ice-cold drink.
Uniquely Infused Ice Cubes are essential to delicious summertime drinks this season. They’re a perfect way to enhance a daytime lunch or family barbecue, as you can incorporate a variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers into your refreshments. Plus, there are fun options for the kids too!
Below is a list of 7 creatively Infused Ice Cubes that are sure to impress guests all summer long:
Floral Ice Cubes
Adding small, edible flowers to ice cubes create a feminine and colorful aesthetic, perfect for a ladies lunch or tea party. To create this delicate, yet vibrant presentation, simply fill an ice cube tray with water, as usual, and insert your flowers of choice. You can include your favorite flower uniformly, or create a beautiful assortment of diverse flowers. Freeze regularly and uncover your beautiful floral creations.
Citrus Ice Cubes
Citrus flavors pair great with water, and Citrus Infused Ice Cubes are so simple to make. Thinly slice lemons, limes, and oranges and place neatly in an ice cube tray, filled with water. Once frozen, pop the ice cubes out of the tray and place them in a tall glass of water to enjoy.
Coffee Ice Cubes
Iced coffee can be energizing on a hot summer day, but when the ice begins to melt, your caffeinated refreshment can become a watered-down brew. Making Coffee Ice Cubes is foolproof, as you pour warm coffee directly into an ice cube tray and place in the freezer. Once frozen, insert your ingeniously caffeinated ice cubes into your drink of choice.
Fresh Fruit Ice Cubes
Choose your favorite fruit or a combination of fruits, and dice them up into small pieces. Add fruit to ice cube trays and fill with water, as usual. Not only are these Fresh Fruit Infused Ice Cubes eye-catching and colorful, they also add natural flavoring and antioxidants to your beverage.
Gummy Worm Ice Cubes
Kids should be included in the summer fun too! Insert colorful gummy worms into an ice cube tray, and fill with water. Place the tray in the freezer and watch your kids light up with joy as they see these gummy delights in their glass.
Mint Ice Cubes
Incorporate fresh mint leaves into ice cube trays and fill with water. Then, freeze to create cool and fresh Mint Infused Ice Cubes, a great addition to a glass of iced tea or sparkling water. Mint helps to cleanse your palate, while also assisting in the digestion process.
Chocolate Milk Ice Cubes
Chocolate Milk Ice Cubes provide the sweet taste of chocolate milk, without the overwhelming amounts of sugar. Simply pour chocolate, or strawberry milk, into an ice cube tray and freeze overnight. Pop out the ice cubes and insert them into your healthy milk of choice. This enables kids to enjoy the tasty flavor of the chocolate milk, without consuming the additional sugar. It’s a win-win for both moms and kids! Plus, adults can use these ice cubes as an alternative way to flavor their coffee drinks.
