For a fun new treat this summer, you will want to try these Lemon Slice Ice Cubes!
If you know me, you know that I LOVE a great glass of iced tea, especially in the summer. I found a new way to enjoy my tea this summer – with Lemon Slice Ice Cubes! They are so easy to make and they add a lot to your drink. Even when the ice melts and you are left with some awesome lemon slices in your tea! Plus, when I’m having guests I love the way these look in the tea pitcher.
What You Need:
>> Lemons
>> Water
>> Cupcake Tin or Ice Cube Tray
What You Do:
Making these great ice cubes is easy. You can either slice up a lemon and add a slice to each section of a cupcake tin. Or you can cut them up into smaller pieces and add one or two to each hole of an ice cube tray.
Then just freeze and serve.
The container you choose to freeze them in will somewhat be determined by the size of your glass or pitcher. The cupcake tin will only work in a pitcher with a wide mouth. Wide mouth mason jars work great too!
This works with just about anything you like to put in your water. Make some ice cubes with lemon and mint. Or add lime slices instead. Berry ice cubes taste delicious in a glass of tea. You lemon ice cubes also will be wonderful in a pitcher of lemonade.
I’m thinking some strawberry ice cubes will be perfect for my Southern Sweet Strawberry Tea recipe!
How have I never thought of this? I love it! Totally going to add this to my food waste awareness posts!
