Blooming Beverages: Elevate Your Summer Sips with Edible Flower Ice Cubes! 🌺🍹
Hey there, fellow summer enthusiasts! Are you ready to take your sipping experience to the next level? Say hello to your cold drink’s new best friend: edible flower ice cubes! 🌼 These little cubes of joy not only add a pop of color and subtle flavour, but they also bring a touch of garden magic to your favorite drinks.

Whether you're a fan of fancy cocktails, refreshing mocktails, or jazzing up your water with something special, these floral ice cubes add the perfect touch. They're super easy to make, requiring only two simple ingredients and a bit of patience, but the end result is totally worth the wait!

Now, you might be wondering, "which flowers can I actually eat?". Here’s a list of some of our favourite options:

  • Marigold
  • Nasturtium
  • Roses
  • Calendula
  • Lavendar
  • Viola (Pansies & Violets)
  • Honeysuckle
  • Snapdragons
  • Chamomile

Feel free to mix and match these petals to create your own unique floral concoctions! 🌺

Instructions:

Step 1: Fill ice cube tray or mold halfway with water and add your flowers to the tray . If needed, separate petals from larger flowers to help them fit. Allow time to freeze, which usually takes around 6 hours, depending on your freezer.

TIP: If you have cloudy water, boil the water first to get super clear ice cubes!

Step 2: Once frozen, take the ice cubes out of the freezer and fill the rest of the tray up with cold water. Freeze it again until they’re completely solid, again about 6 hours.

Voilà! Now you are ready for a colorful, summertime refreshment

So, what are you waiting for? Let's toast to sunshine, good vibes, and the flavors of summer in every sip! Cheers! 🥂
