Making ice spheres has actually never been easier thanks to this new tutorial video. This highly informative video will take you step by step through the process of how to use silicone ice molds to create long lasting ice spheres.
Why is Ice Important? One of the most important ingredients for any drink maker can also be one of the most overlooked: Ice. However, the importance of ice in a really good drink should not be ignored. When mixing drinks or cocktails, or making drinks on the rocks, ice keeps the drink cool. But ice also mellows the taste of strong spirits, making for a smoother drink.
Ice comes in many shapes. In fact, it can come in almost any shape that you want, depending only on your imagination. The most frequently used shapes used in drink making are cubes, cracked ice, crushed ice, shaved ice, ice blocks, and ice balls.
Making ice balls at home is simple and easy. Even if you're not familiar with them, ice balls are as basic as they sound - balls of ice. Some high end of artisan-type bars maybe keep large blocks of ice on hand and hand carve their own ice balls. This might work for them, but for the amatuer drink maker who makes drinks for sheer pleasure, keeping large chunks of ice is probably not realistic.
Making your own ice balls is actually a lot easier than you might think it is. Using special sphere shaped ice trays, you can make excellent ice balls every single time. And once you have used them in your drinks, you may never want any other kind of ice. Use ice spheres to transform your good drinks into great ones1
