Here’s What You’ll Need

Edible Flowers: You can usually find edible flowers at farmer’s markets or natural food stores. The more colorful they are, the prettier your floral ice cubes will turn out.
Water: For crystal clear cubes, use distilled, boiled, and cooled water.
Ice Cube Tray: A silicone ice cube mold will work best since it’s easier to get the cubes out in one piece. Feel free to get creative with the shapes!

Making Floral Ice Cubes Is So Simple

Assemble: Place the flowers in each ice mold well. Fill ¾ full with water.
Freeze: Freeze until solid. Fill the rest with water, and freeze again.

Get Creative

Crystal Clear Cubes: To take your floral ice cubes to the next level, I recommend using distilled water over tap water! Boil it first, then let it cool for crystal clear cubes with little-to-no bubbles.

Add Some Flavor: Add a dash of elderflower syrup to the ice cubes before freezing them. It adds a touch of sweetness that infuses your drink as it melts!

Let’s Get Herby: Combine edible flowers with fresh herbs like mint, basil, oregano, or rosemary for a fragrant twist on your floral ice cubes.

Berry-Licious: For a berry delicate flavor and more color, add a few of your favorite berries (raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries are best).
