Why serve ordinary drinks when you can wow your guests with floral and fruit ice cubes? This simple yet stunning trend transforms everyday beverages into works of art. Infused with edible flowers, citrus, herbs, or berries, these cubes elevate iced tea, lemonade, cocktails, or sparkling water—making them an Instagram and Pinterest favorite.
Ingredients:
- Edible flowers (pansies, violets, lavender, chamomile)
- Fresh herbs (mint, rosemary, thyme)
- Sliced fruit (berries, lemon, lime, orange)
- Distilled or boiled-and-cooled water (for clear ice)
Instructions:
- Arrange flowers, fruit, or herbs in ice cube trays.
- Fill trays halfway with water, freeze until set.
- Add more water to cover and freeze fully (this prevents floating).
- Pop out cubes and serve in drinks.
Tips & Variations:
- Match cube colors to party themes (e.g., pink flowers for baby showers).
- Use coconut water or fruit juice for flavored cubes.
- Great for mocktails, cocktails, or summer iced teas.
