Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Filtered water
- 12 pieces Edible flowers (such as pansies, violets, or marigolds)
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 6 pieces Sliced strawberries
- 6 pieces Sliced cucumber
- 6 pieces Lime wedges
Instructions
Start by ensuring all your additions (flowers, fruit slices, and herbs) are washed clean. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Fill an ice cube tray halfway with filtered water. Using filtered water ensures clear ice cubes for a prettier presentation.
Gently place your edible flowers one by one into some of the compartments, pressing them down into the water.
In the remaining compartments, add your choice of fresh mint leaves, basil leaves, sliced strawberries, cucumber slices, or lime wedges.
Place the ice cube tray in the freezer and freeze for 2-3 hours or until the water is partially frozen.
Once partially frozen, top off each compartment with more filtered water to fully submerge the ingredients. This step creates ice cubes with suspended decorations in the middle.
Return the tray to the freezer and freeze for an additional 4-6 hours or until completely solid.
Pop the ice cubes out of the tray when ready to use. Serve in a glass of water, sparkling drinks, or cocktails for a refreshing and exotic twist!
