No more watery drinks
We love this idea from Discount Dame Karen Elizabeth Watts: Before any hot-weather get-together, make tea, lemonade or any other flavored drink, and freeze it in ice cubes. Use these drink cubes instead of plain ice cubes, to keep drinks from being watered down. Have fun by mixing and matching: Use lemonade cubes in tea, or let the kids choose Kool-Aid cubes to make their own custom blend. It's also a good way to recycle that last bit of coffee in the pot: Make coffee cubes to use in iced coffee later.
