From Chef Leah Eskin, published in the Chicago Tribune. What a fun way to dress up ice cubes. I've put the ingredients for just one drink - the number of ice cubes you make is up to you. Ingredients:
whole fresh mint leaves |
whole fresh basil leaf |
whole fresh thyme leave |
fresh lime juice |
2 ounces vodka |
4 ounces tonic water |
Directions:
1. Fill one or more ice cube trays with water. Drop one perfect herb leaf (or several thyme leaves) into each compartment.
2. Drizzle the juice of one lime per tray across all the openings. Freeze solid. Pop out and store in plastic freezer bags.
3. Drink: Drop 4 or 5 cubes into a chilled 8 ounce glass.
4. Add vodka and fill with tonic. Stir once.
5. I think lovage leaves would be great for Bloody Marys.
