Okay, so listen up. I’m talking loose leaf Earl Grey tea, brewed strong, cooled down, and frozen into flavorful ice cubes. Think of them as little flavor bombs. Drop one in your lemonade, for an instant upgrade. Or, if you're making a cocktail, these ice cubes will totally change the game. And while you’re at it, get creative with your ice cube trays. Stars, hearts, whatever. It’s all about presentation!

Here, I used my silicone Madeleine cookie mold to create these fun shell-shaped ice cubes.
