We’ve got a fancy way to dress up your drinks and cocktails! Ice cubes get revamped to take your libations to the next level. Some can be used for mock-tails or cocktails, that way the whole family can partake in this fun! It’s also a fun way to sneak booze into drinks if you are having a day at the beach or even going to a fun outdoor concert!
You will need a few things to get started:
- Measuring devices: spoons & cups
- Ice cube trays – we recommend the silicon version.
- Small sauce pan
Leftover Coffee Cubes:
Fun to make iced coffee or add into a blender to make a mocha or coffee infused smoothie!
Ingredients:
- coffee
- 1/4 cup agave syrup or even a bit of chocolate milk
Steps:
- Easy breezy here, simply add the coffee to the trays, and if you like add in a bit of sweetness or chocolate.
Chocolate Ice Cubes:
These cubes are the perfect companion for a cold-brew coffee, a white russian cocktail, or even with plain cold milk! Super tasty, and all homemade.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 cup agave syrup
Steps:
- Place all ingredients in a heavy-bottom pan and whisk until combined. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
- Let mix cool completely and place in ice cube trays.
- Remove from trays and serve with your favorite drink (or even munch on them!)
Champagne Cubes:
Fun to keep you brunch “mimosas” cold and pretty!
Ingredients:
- Champagne or Prosecco
- Grenadine or favorite juice that has a pretty hue
Steps:
Pour the champagne into the trays, and add a 1/2 teaspoon of grenadine, or blood orange juice, or your favorite colored juice. Looks beautiful and tastes delicious!
Limeade Cubes:
These babies are great for adding citrus to ice cubes, or making a margarita or mojito that much more zesty.
Ingredients:
- 3 limes
- fresh mint leaves
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 cup agave syrup
Steps:
- Pour your water into the trays, evenly leaving room for a few drops of agave and the lime juice.
