Here are 6 easy, eye-popping ideas to try:

Blueberry Ice Cubes

Sure, you can freeze the rest of those blueberries from the farmers' market. Or, you can turn them into pretty purple ice cubes like Deborah from The Harvest Kitchen. All you have to do is puree whole fresh blueberries and add a splash of lemon juice, a drizzle of honey, and enough water to make the mixture thin enough to pour into ice cube trays. Add them to lemonade, iced tea, or water for a delicious, fruity refreshment.

Layered Ice Cubes

If you've been looking for a low-cal way to amp up the taste of water and seltzer, these ice cubes are the answer. Brightly colored juices are a must for making great layered ice cubes. But you should try using ones with bold flavors, too—like lemon juice, lime juice, or sour cherry juice, recommends Sue of The View from Great Island. That way the cubes look great in your drink—and the flavor pops, too. Click on over to the blog for a simple how-to.

Spa Water Cubes

Clearly, the only limit to making decorative ice cubes is your imagination. You can add practically any ingredients you have on hand, from leftover cucumber slices to thinly sliced lemon or orange rind (hooray, upcycled fruit!), says Ashley of Let's Mingle. And don't be afraid to get creative with your flavor combos: Have some extra strawberries and mint from last night's salad? Or a few sprigs of lavender and tarragon from that baking project? If it sounds like it would be delicious in a drink, it's probably worth using to make a batch of cubes. (Don't have time to wait for ice cubes to freeze? You can make any of these delicious sassy water recipes right now.)
