I know it's hard for some of you in freezing weather to think about iced drinks, but it will be warm soon and you'll love making these pretty little ice cubes. They are a nice touch when you're entertaining or just want to treat yourself to an elegant appearance with your iced waters and teas. Please be sure that you use pesticide free herbs or flowers. You can also use small slices of fruits or even berries in your ice cubes.
Ingredients:
Unsprayed, pesticide-free choice of flowers or herbs such as marigold, mint leaves, lemon balm leaves, Johnny-jump-ups, pansies, plum blosssom, scented geranium flowers or violets. If using leaves from herbs choose tiny, new leaves.
1). Remove petals and stems from the flowers or remove herb leaves from stems and brush to clean off any dirt or dust.
2). Place 3 to 4 petals or leaves in each compartment of an ice cube tray, fill halfway with water and freeze for 2 hours. Fill tray with water to top and freeze until solid.
TO SERVE
Place one or two cubes in a glass and fill with beverage of choice.
