Notes

ℹ️ troubleshooting tips

  • nail the positioning - in order to be sure you can really see the berries well in the cubes, place the berries sliced side down in the tray.
  • get clear cubes - normally, making clear ice at home without a specialty ice maker involves boiling water and freezing it while it’s still hot. I do not recommend this method as the hot water can damage the delicate strawberries. Use distilled water to minimize impurities in the water. This helps the ice to freeze more clearly. For TRULY CLEAR CUBES, I love speciality clear ice molds from the brands True Cubes and Clearly Frozen (affiliate links).
  • use enough berries - put 2-3 slices of strawberries in the tray up against the bottom and sides of the ice cube tray ensures that the strawberries will be pushed to the edges of the cubes. This helps you to see the slices once they freeze. Otherwise, the berries will float to the middle of the cubes while freezing and you won’t be able to see them clearly.
