Flowers in ice cubes

Vine with OrchidSince I am at the topic of leisure activities and flowers, I thought I’ll share one more cool tip. How to turn out a sexy cocktail?

Would you like an appealing and appetizing cocktail. One of the coolest trick is to freeze a flower into ice cubes and add it to the drinks. Any edible flower can do this but nothing beats the exotic orchid.

Two simple steps:

  • Place the flower in an ice tray, fill the tray halfway with water. Freeze it.
  • Then fill the tray fully with water and freeze again.

Voila, frozen flower cubes are ready to decorate your cocktails or punches and it also sets the right mood for a beautiful evening.

Notes: Freezing the flower halfway first ensures that the flower does not stick out as the flower will tend to float up. And also freezing it halfway first will give a better placement to the flower.
Apart from orchids, Rose petals are easy to find and also looks very romantic.
