Creative ice cube ideas for your next party
Everyone will be talking about these amazing ice cubes at your next get together.
1. Melon balls – Using a melon baller, scoop melon balls. Lay in your ice cube tray and freeze for a delicious fruit infusion option.
2. Irish coffee cubes – Mix half a cup of coffee with a cup of Baileys. Pour into tray and freeze to use in your next iced-coffee.
3. Pina Colada cubes – Mix one part coconut milk with one part coconut rum. Fill your ice cube tray with the mixture a third of the way up. Freeze. Cover with a small layer of pineapple juice. Freeze. Finish with the milk/rum mix and freeze a final time.
4. Watermelon cubes – Like the melon balls, dice up a watermelon into cubes and freeze. You can also try this with grapes!
5. Lemon disks – This option is ideal for water pitchers. Slice a lemon into round disks. Add a slice or two to a muffin tray and fill with water for large, citrusy ice cubes.
6. Glitter cubes – Freeze ice cubes as normal. Once frozen, sprinkle a good layer of edible glitter (this can be found online or in the baking section) over top. Refreeze. When the ice cubes melt, they’ll turn your drink into a disco beverage.
7. Glow in the dark ice cubes – When placed under black light, tonic water glows. Freeze tonic water for glowing gin and tonics. If you don’t like the tonic flavour, water them down before freezing.
