If you are into fancy looking cocktails this product makes sense. Making clear ice cubes at home is not easy.

My store also have Unfrozen Ice Cubes

Putting aside for now, the fact that making crystal clear ice requires specially filtered water that is very carefully and slowly frozen with fancy equipment.

The real question is why does anyone think this is what they need in life. They only people I have seen that insist on such things are whisk(e)y snobs that drink their whisk(e)y on the rocks. They claim that cloudy ice has impurities in it that affects the flavor of the drink.

While technically they are maybe correct, my reply is-- "Shut up and drink your whisk(e)y neat like God and the Irish meant it to be consumed. The water is already in it."

Why would I buy frozen ice cubes? I have no time to microwave, I'd rather buy fresh ones

"Enlarged to show detail"?? Wow

Is this a freezing kit or actual ice? Because freezing your own ice that looks like that can be difficult.

Why don't they just put these things into the ocean and solve global warming?

I remember when buying bottled water seemed ridiculous.

Ultra pure slow melting.... ok... it melts just like regular water

He shops at Aldi

He buys $5 ice.

Who is this person? Is he the same guy spending thousands on a free game?

Ha. It says "keep frozen."

What the fuck....... My co worker put a video of this.... On snap like 11 hours ago from Aldi's. Like, this could be a screen grab of it.

They're 4 square cubes of clear ice and Aldi wants like $5 for them.

if i saw these i'd leave them in the bread section

Lol I saw these at my Aldi too. It's pretty dumb at first but I have seen ice cubes for sale at liquor stores for making mixed drinks.

Regular tap water usually doesn't make perfectly clear ice and most trays are a lot smaller than 1.8" cubes. I wonder if the tray is reusable? If you were planning on a cocktail night and knew what you were looking for, this might not be as dumb of a buy as you think, especially if it was a one-time need.

It just looks especially silly at Aldi, a grocery store that prides itself on affordable products and doesn't sell liquor lol

Ah, yes frozen ice
