September 10, 2008 11:31 AM PDT Reusable ice cubes from Mother Nature
Posted by Thursday Bram Post a comment  (Credit: Mocha)
I don't like watered down drinks, so I've been known to use reusable ice cubes rather than plain frozen water. When I was looking for a new set, Mocha's Nordic Rocks caught my eye. These reusable ice cubes are durable, nontoxic--and made out of rock! They come in sets of 10. Each rock is 22 millimeters cubed. To use the Nordic Rock cubes, you just place them in the freezer for about an hour. You'll probably need two or three for a glass, but Nordic Rocks give off the cold slowly.

Rep Power: 2 | Won't they break the glasses?
I think that it would be a waste for me to get these since I already own an ice machine. | |

Rep Power: 10 | I would think that over time they would discolor or hold onto flavors. | |

Rep Power: 2 | They would have to be refrozen as well before they can be reused. | |

I've got some drink coolers that will hold a can drink (good for beer  ) that got the blue ice in them and they refreeze pretty quick.

Rep Power: 2 | I had those clear double-wall plastic mugs that you freeze before using, to keep drinks cold.
Three of rhtem leaked and there's only one left. | |
