clear ice cubesHave you ever wondered how bars and restaurants get that crystal-clear ice that makes drinks sparkle so deliciously? Have you ever wished you knew the secret to making clear ice cubes?

Wonder no more!

If you’ve ever looked at your ice cube tray halfway through the freezing process, then you might have noticed how the outside shell freezes first, while the interior is still a liquid. As the inside continues to freeze, anything in the water is pushed out through the already frozen parts, creating the micro-fissures in the ice that make it cloudy.

Most commercial ice makers create ice in layers, which prevents air bubbles and impurities from getting trapped inside during the freezing process.  Think about how icicles form – each thin layer of water is allowed to freeze before the next layer of water is added, so the ice remains crystal clear.

But you don’t need fancy equipment to make clear ice at home. All it takes is some distilled water, a kettle and your freezer. We’ve put our best tips and tricks for making clear ice cubes in this convenient infographic.  Read on to discover how you can serve up sparkling beverages just like the pros!
