Spruce Up Your Drinks
Nothing is cuter than a drink fancied up with a colorful garnish like flower-filled ice cubes. I mean, come on! They instantly make a drink look 100 times better, and they can even make it taste better too. So, why settle for boring old ice when you can turn your drinks into a garden party in a glass? These stunning floral ice cubes are the perfect way to add a splash of color to your favorite bevvies. Whether you’re hosting a bridal shower or just lounging in the sun on a hot day, your drinks will thank you (trust me!). Add these cubes to lavender lemonades, hugo cocktails, sodas, or just some plain ol’ water.
Here’s What You’ll Need
Edible Flowers: You can usually find edible flowers at farmer’s markets or natural food stores. The more colorful they are, the prettier your floral ice cubes will turn out. (Find out the types of edible flowers here!) Water: For crystal clear cubes, use distilled, boiled, and cooled water. Ice Cube Tray: A silicone ice cube mold will work best since it’s easier to get the cubes out in one piece. Feel free to get creative with the shapes!
Making Floral Ice Cubes Is So Simple
Get Creative
Crystal Clear Cubes: To take your floral ice cubes to the next level, I recommend using distilled water over tap water! Boil it first, then let it cool for crystal clear cubes with little-to-no bubbles. Add Some Flavor: Add a dash of elderflower syrup to the ice cubes before freezing them. It adds a touch of sweetness that infuses your drink as it melts! Let’s Get Herby: Combine edible flowers with fresh herbs like mint, basil, oregano, or rosemary for a fragrant twist on your floral ice cubes. Berry-Licious: For a berry delicate flavor and more color, add a few of your favorite berries (raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries are best).
