Flavoured Ice: A New Twist on Classic Cocktails
Flavoured Ice: A New Twist on Classic Cocktails
Ice is often an unsung hero in the world of cocktails – it chills, dilutes, and rounds off a drink. But what if ice could do more? With Icematic’s Ice FLAVOUR System, it can do a lot more!
This revolutionary system allows bartenders to create flavoured ice that enhances your favourite drinks in ways you never thought possible.
Let’s have a bit of fun and explore how some of these delicious flavours can elevate classic cocktails. Ready to get creative with your ice?
Pineapple Ice + Pina Colada = Tropical Bliss
Is there anything more refreshing than a Pina Colada on a hot day? Probably not, but we’ve got a way to make it even better: pineapple-flavoured ice.
This tropical twist brings the fruity goodness of fresh pineapple to your drink, intensifying the natural flavours of the Pina Colada. As the ice melts, it releases more of that sweet, tangy pineapple taste, making every sip an even more vibrant tropical escape.
Why it works: Pineapple is a staple of the Pina Colada, so it only makes sense that this ice would amplify the flavours you already love. It’s like a little taste of paradise in every cube!
Mint Ice + Mojito = Minty Fresh Perfection
A Mojito is all about the perfect balance of mint, lime, and sweetness – so why not kick up the mint factor with mint-flavoured ice?
With every sip, the ice delivers an extra punch of refreshing mintiness that pairs perfectly with the cocktail’s zesty lime. As the ice melts, it keeps infusing the drink with minty goodness, ensuring that cool, fresh taste lingers until the last drop.
Why it works: The ice amps up the minty freshness, keeping your Mojito as refreshing and aromatic as the first sip, from start to finish.
Cinnamon Ice + Hot Toddy = Warm and Spicy Comfort
When the weather cools down, there’s nothing quite like a soothing Hot Toddy to warm you up. But here’s a pro tip – add a little cinnamon-flavoured ice to take your cosy drink to the next level.
The ice melts slowly, infusing your drink with just the right amount of spicy cinnamon sweetness, making every sip feel even more comforting.
Why it works: Cinnamon and honey are a match made in heaven, and with cinnamon ice, you can add extra warmth and spice to your Hot Toddy. It’s the ultimate drink for curling up with on a chilly night.
Raspberry Ice + Gin and Tonic = A Berry Refreshing Twist
A classic Gin and Tonic is refreshing on its own, but why not spice it up a little with raspberry-flavoured ice?
The tart, juicy flavour of raspberry perfectly balances the bitterness of the tonic and the botanicals of the gin. As the ice melts, it infuses the drink with a subtle fruity sweetness, taking your G&T to a whole new level of flavour.
Why it works: Raspberry and gin go hand-in-hand, so adding raspberry ice makes for a delightful, fruity twist. It’s a fun way to refresh a timeless classic!
Caramel Ice + Coffee Martini = Sweet and Smooth Indulgence
For those who love a little sweetness with their coffee, caramel-flavoured ice is the perfect companion for a Coffee Martini.
The rich caramel ice slowly melts into the coffee cocktail, creating a luscious sweetness that balances out the bold coffee flavours. It’s indulgent but not overwhelming, giving your drink a smooth, silky finish.
Why it works: Caramel and coffee are a match made in flavour heaven. The caramel ice elevates the deep, roasted coffee notes without overpowering them, adding a creamy sweetness that’s just right.
Basil Ice + Gin Basil Smash = Herbaceous Harmony
Basil-flavoured ice brings a fresh, herbaceous twist to your classic Gin Basil Smash.
This cocktail, already brimming with the refreshing taste of muddled basil and lemon, becomes even more vibrant when the ice adds its aromatic herbal notes. As the ice melts, it infuses the drink with a deeper basil essence, creating a smoother, more layered experience with every sip.
Why it works: Basil is a natural companion to gin, with its herbaceous, slightly peppery profile enhancing the botanicals in the spirit. The basil ice intensifies that flavour, making for a refreshing and unique cocktail experience.
The Possibilities Are Endless!
With Icematic’s Ice FLAVOUR System, you’re not just chilling your drinks – you’re enhancing them with custom flavours. Whether you’re crafting tropical concoctions, minty coolers, or indulgent coffee creations, the options are endless.
So next time you’re behind the bar or planning your next cocktail party, get creative with your ice and see how these flavours can take your drinks to new heights!
