Freeze them in all shapes and sizes, with any kinds of tea, fruit and berries, juices and fresh herbs. As the ice melts they’ll give every sip of iced tea, tea cocktails and other drinks a new burst of flavor. Try all the great ice cube trays that are now available in all shapes and sizes, and get started with these recipes and ideas to keep your iced drinks strong all summer long.

Tea Ice Cube Tips & Ideas:

  • Classic Tea Ice Cubes – Brew tea slightly stronger than usual, cool completely and sweeten if desired; pour into ice trays and freeze. 
  • Berry, Juice & Tea Ice Cubes – Freeze any tea or juice blend, add fresh berries and freeze. Great for cocktails or sparkling water.
  • Citrus & Herb Tea Ice Cubes – Freeze slices of lemon or orange and fresh mint or basil in green or herbal tea. Clean, bright, and refreshing.
  • Party-Size Tea Ice Blocks – Freeze tea or juice in a large gelatin mold, bundt pan or loaf pan to create big blocks of flavored ice for punch bowls.
