Infused ice maker appliance

A refrigerator appliance, comprising:

• a cabinet;
• a chilled chamber defined within the cabinet;
• and
• an ice making assembly, the ice making assembly comprising:
• an additive dispensing assembly comprising an additive cup configured to receive a volume of liquid additive and a dispensing tube downstream of the additive cup;
• a mold body comprising a mold cavity;
• and
• a fill tube in fluid communication with a water supply, the fill tube oriented at an oblique angle, whereby a flow of liquid water from the fill tube defines an arcuate path from an outlet of the fill tube, an outlet of the dispensing tube aligned along a tangent to the arcuate path, whereby a flow of the liquid additive from the dispensing tube intersects the flow of liquid water from the fill tube above the mold body and mixes with the flow of liquid water from the fill tube to form a mixed flow of liquid water and liquid additive, wherein
• the mold body is positioned downstream of the dispensing tube and the fill tube, the mold cavity configured for receiving the mixed flow of liquid water and liquid additive whereby a mixture of liquid water and liquid additive is formed in the mold cavity, the mold cavity further configured for retaining the mixture of liquid water and liquid additive to form an ice piece from the mixture in the mold cavity.
