    Ice Cube Trays: 5 To Try This Summer

    Published: Jul 9, 2020 · Updated: Jul 9, 2020 by Jennifer · This post may contain affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

    Ice cube trays are not all created equal. You want some large ice cube trays for summer cocktails. Large spheres and blocks of ice will help you keep mixed drinks cool without watering them down.

    You want every last sip of a summer cocktail to be the best so don't dilute with tiny cubes: go big and bold with cubes that will melt slowly, keeping your concoctions fresh.

    Large Ice Cube Trays for Summer Cocktails

    Happy summer friend!

    I hope you are having some fun wherever you are in the world and whatever you're dealing with.

    Sip up every last bit of summer with a fresh mixed drink or mocktail. 

    Be sure to use an over-sized ice cube though so your drink stays cool without being diluted.

    I found some good choices. Click through to check them out. 

    Ice Cubes for Your Fancy Summer Cocktails

    Ice cube trays are not all created equal. You want some super jumbo sizes to create large spheres and blocks of ice, which will help you keep drinks cool without watering them down.

    Need a drink recipe? This grapefruit martini recipe is one of the most popular drinks on my site.

    However, a Lemon Drop Martini is probably my favorite.

    Do you need more convincing about the necessity of large ice cube trays?

    Cheers!

    Your turn:

    What's your favorite summer drink? What kind of ice cube trays do you own?
