Ingredients
Red (Raspberry)
- raspberry pureed and sweetened, or raspberry sorbet
Orange (Peach)
- peach pureed and sweetened, or peach sorbet, flesh
Yellow (Pineapple)
- pineapple pureed and sweetened, or pineapple sorbet
Green (Honeydew Melon)
- honeydew melon or honeydew melon sorbet, pureed and sweetened
Blue (Butterfly Pea)
- 3 butterfly pea flower or butterfly pea tea, loosely packed dried
- 2 cups water boiling
- sugar to sweeten your drink
To serve
- lemonade your favourite
- vodka optional, to top up
Instructions
Fruit Ice Cubes
- Fill the ice cube trays with the fruit sorbets or pureed fruit. Freeze overnight (Please see note).
Butterfly pea Ice cubes
- For the blue Butterfly pea ice cubes, steep the tea bags or dried flowers in boiling water and keep covered for about 5-10 minutes, till you get a beautiful deep blue color.
- Drain the liquid and add sugar to sweeten it to your liking. Let the tea cool.
- Fill the ice cube tray with this liquid and freeze overnight.
- When the ice cubes have frozen, remove them from the tray and store them in plastic freezer bags (this is just for convenience).
- When ready to serve, place rainbow ice cube each in a glass, and fill with lemonade about ¾ of the way - if you're topping it with vodka, or all the way - if you're not adding alcohol.
- You can leave it out for a few minutes or until the rainbow ice cubes start to melt (especially the blue Butterfly pea ice cube), before serving.
Notes
- You can use any ice cube tray, but silicone trays will release the sorbet ice cubes more easily.
