BarCraft Reusable Ice Cubes, Plastic, Multi Colour, Pack of 18

I was initially skeptical that these cubes would be better than good ol regular ice cubes, but I have come to preferring them over ice.I like that these reusable cubes don't carry any freezer taste that regular ice cubes can. I also like that they come in different colors- I tend to use the blue/green ones for coffee, and the rest of the colors for other beverages.. not that they retain any taste- I just like having them divvied out for different drinks :)The only thing that I'm not a fan of is that small plastic nub protruding out of them. I also think that one pack of these works well for one person (they fill up one pint glass' worth), but you would need a lot more if these if you trying to chill a lot of drinks all at the same time.Overall, I really love these ice cubes and use them daily!

I bought these to surround my summer weekend bottle of cider in my perspex champagne bucket whilst having an outside drink in the sun in order to keep it cool. They do help but I would need a few packets to work well meaning they are quite expensive for the job. However I have discovered that my wine drinking guests like to pop one into their, usually, large glass of wine just to give it a bit extra chill on our hot summer evenings. The advantage of course is that they do not melt, so they do not ruin the wine. My guests don't seem to mind the colours in the wine, they just enjoy a cold glass of plonk. They seem well made and fairly sturdy, no cheap sharp seams. They are not dishwasher proof, but I find that swirling them about in a bowl of warm soapy water, rinsed and left to dry on a clean tea towel does the trick, popping them into a freezer bag and into the freezer for the next time.

They don't chill drinks as quickly or as cold as normal icecubes so you have to use 6-7 per drink. Otherwise a nice novelty and convenient alternative to icecubes. They only contain 50% liquid which expands when frozen. As this melts quite quickly, the drink stays above freezing temperature.

Quality ice cubes, easily washed and refrozen. Keep my drink bottle cold for several hours and nice cool water

They all have a fairly large bit of plastic sticking out on one side. I assume this is just left from the mould when making them but I find it really annoying. They don't lie flat and just look strange. You can't cut that piece off as then all the liquid leaks out from inside the cube

Good quality.Does good job.Good value for the money

My son noticed that ice from the ice maker on our fridge left a residue when it melted - presumably because we have hard water. I'd never noticed - but my G&Ts tend not to last long enough for the ice to melt!He is very happy with these because they don't leave any residue when they thaw out and don't dilute his drink. Quick rinse under the tap and a rub with a teatowel, then back in the freezer to be used again.

Very pleased with them
