There are different ways adopted to cool a drink. Some people love chilled drinks, placed in a refrigerator before consumption; whereas, while others like to use ice cubes to enjoy a refreshing drink in hot weather. If you are a little creative, you can spice up your drink by using fruit ice cubes, which can also be a fun way.
Ingredients
- Water
- Fruits of your choice
Instructions
- The first step towards making fruit ice cubes is to boil a pot of water and allow it to cool before you pour them in the ice cube tray.
- You must remember that ice made of boiled water turns out clearer as compared to normal water.
- The next step is to select the variety of fruits that you wish to use in your ice cubes.
- Raspberries, strawberries, oranges and lemon freeze quite well.
- Cherries and blueberries are small enough to use as a whole.
- Before you cut the fruits into pieces that fit in different sections of the ice cube tray, you are required to remove skin, rind and seeds from fruit.
- You can now place a piece of fruit carefully into the water in each section of the ice cube tray.
- You should leave the sections full by allowing excess water to spill out.
- You can now place the ice cubes in the freezer.
- Let them freeze for a few hours so that they are properly frozen.
- Once the ice cubes have been properly frozen, you can remove them from the ice cube tray and serve them in the drinks.
- The fruit ice cubes are going to enhance the overall presentation of your drink.
