    Yeah but it’s like $7USD to just buy the mold to freeze your own. This may or may not come with a reusable mold but my guess is that folk will just use it as disposable which is a metaphor for modern society.

    If you use these in cocktails, a very big part of the presentation is that the cubes are perfectly clear, giving a very interesting look to the drink

    Making clear ice at home is quite tedious, and not just a simple "put water in a mold and done" job

    You basically need to freeze the water in a partially insulated container and never let it fully freeze into a solid block

    There are a bunch of videos that show you how to do it
