Method of making novelty ice cubes

Abstract

A method of making novelty ice cubes that change color which includes the steps of: pouring water into a first ice cube tray to form a poured first solution; freezing the poured first solution to form a frozen first solution; removing the frozen first solution from the first ice cube tray to form clear ice cubes; adding a food dye to citric acid to form a second solution; mixing the second solution to form a mixed second solution; pouring an amount of the mixed second solution into a second ice cube tray to form a poured layer; freezing the poured layer to form a frozen thin layer; wetting the frozen layer to form a wetted thin layer; placing a clear ice cube of the clear ice cubes onto each wetted layer to form a combination; pouring an additional amount of the mixed second solution onto the combination, until a layer of the mixed second solution covers the exposed portion of the clear ice cubes to form together with the frozen layer a layer encasement that completely encases the clear ice cubes and forms with the clear ice cubes an encased combination; freezing the encased combination to from a frozen combination; removing the frozen combination from the second ice cube tray to form colored and flavored ice cubes; putting the colored and flavored ice cubes into a drink; and causing the layer encasement to melt and become substantially clear.
