Make ice fun over the holiday season and surprise your guests with some festive ice cubes that not only look beautiful but create an aromatic decadence when added to any drink...
As it is summertime here in Australia, I cut sprigs of flowering rosemary and lavender blooms from my parents organic garden and popped a sweet surprise in each ice compartment. I filled the tray 1/3 of the way with water and let the herbs float to the surface before freezing. The secret to keeping the herbs inside the ice is to turn each one over once the water has frozen and fill with water to the top before freezing again.
You can experiment with lots of beautiful fragrances and flavours, just be sure to make sure the organics are edible and not at all harmful to digest.
Try a rose ice cube with rosè and edible rose petals, or this mint and ginger twist using apple ginger juice and young mint leaves!
