Herb Infused Ice Cubes | Recipe & Step by Step Instructions

Herb infused ice is a beautiful way to add color to your favorite beverage. Try boiling the water first for the clearest cubes to highlight your herbs.

Try combining two or three different herbs to your cocktail for an interesting profile. If you don’t want green bits floating in your drink, you can double sieve the herbs.
