Flower Ice Cubes Recipe

Ok, no one really needs a recipe for making ice cubes, but this is a nice way to introduce flowers into your menus!

Pour distilled water into an ice cube tray filling the sections halfway full and freeze until firm.

Add your unsprayed flower petals (rose petals, borage, and violets are especially pretty when used this way) and cover with distilled water and freeze until completely hardened.

Use in your favorite beverages. The flower ice cubes are especially pretty when used in glasses of club soda or sparkling water.

NOTE: Flowers which have been sprayed with pesticides should NEVER be used for culinary purposes either as an ingredient in a recipe or garnish. NEVER give edible flowers to children or persons with compromised immune systems.
