Fruit Ice Cubes for The Summer..
published by Chris Bailie on Jun 1, 2012
An idea for the Summer, fruit ice cubes for cold drinks to have and enjoy in the Summer months, or all year around.
Hello Everyone,
I have an idea for the Summer, it’s simple, easy to do and all you need to do is decide which fruits to use, depending on the fruit, you could use a blender, removing any skin, pips, stalks or seeds by hand or by using a sieve after blending, or squeeze the fruit directly into a jug, depending on the type of fruit.
Imagine ice cubes made from all different kind of fruits: apples, oranges, bananas, strawberries, cherries, blackberries, gooseberries, red grapes and green grapes, kiwi fruit, melon, lemons, limes, tangerines, grapefruit and pears, (and any other fruit can be used).
All you need to do is extract the juice from your fruit into your jug, then pour into an ice cube tray, or pour directly from your blender if you used one, simple, easy and refreshing. You can mix fruits together to make mixed flavours, or add orange ice cubes to a lemon drink, mix and match and experiment to come up with different tastes and flavours. Try using cold still water or cold carbonated water too.
Once you have poured your juice into your ice cube trays, simply place in your freezer, simple! I know I have displayed a picture of fruit and a picture of ice cubes, I hope people can look forward to this just by seeing these images and hopefully encourage people to try this idea and see the results for themselves!

I hope everybody likes and appreciates this idea, any comments and / or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

This is a great idea and one that I have done for many years. I also will make lemonade and put it into ice cube trays…or just add a sprig of mint to the water and freeze…

Love this and have been doing this myself for several years and I mean a lot of years keeping my children and grandchildren happy. This is much better for you that the store bought stuff and juice cubes are great to add to your drinks, cools them but doesn’t dilute them. Great share my friend.

Extra yummy. I would like to make orange ones and put them in freshly squeezed orange juice for breakfast.
