Categories     Punch Beverage

Time 6h15m

Yield 1 Ice Tray, 14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

14 fresh edible flowers (such as scented geraniums, nasturtiums, violets, rose petals, pansies, lavender, borage, basil, chiv)
1 1/2 cups water, boiled and cooled
ice cube

Steps:

  • Gather and gently rinse all of your pesticide-free blossoms.
  • Boil water for 2 minutes for all the air trapped in the water to escape. Then leave to cool till room temperature. This will ensure that the ice cubes are crystal clear.
  • Place each blossom at the base of each individual compartment within an ice tray (or more trays if you have a large party).
  • Fill each compartment half full with the cooled boiled water and freeze.
  • After the water is frozen solid, fill each ice cube compartment the rest of the way to the top with the remaining boiled water.
  • Refreeze and allow it to remain in the freezer until you are ready to use them (store in the freezer in zip lock bags).
  • NOTE: You can also freeze a large ice ring for the punch bowl, with a variety of blossoms. Don't use the glass punchbowl or it will expand and burst in the freezer. Instead, use a ring-shaped cake tin and fill it with flowers and water. Follow the same procedure as above (filling halfway, then freezing), but you can add additional blossoms to the second layer so that the blossoms are throughout the large ice ring.
  • Use the ice cubes in pitchers or glasses of lemonade, iced tea, juices, punches and cocktails.

HERBAL ICE CUBES



Herbal Ice Cubes image

Freezing is a simple and excellent way to preserve fresh culinary herbs. Packing in ice cube trays makes it easy to always have fresh herbs on hand, adding fresh herb flavor to soups, sauces, and drinks. Some people prefer to freeze in a good quality olive oil, I prefer the boiling water method, which is listed in this recipe here today. You can freeze herbs individually or in combinations of other herbs.
