There is a simple pleasure in adding one 2.5-inch diameter sphere of ice to your beverage instead of multiple ice cubes, as it melts at a very slow, even rate in your glass. Whether it is whiskey, a margarita or pink lemonade, the ice ball creates a more fulfilling taste experience. Beautifully designed in red and white, the Zoku Ice Ball is unsurpassed for its ease of use. Just fill with water through the hole on the top of the food-safe silicone mold and place it in the freezer. Once it is frozen, just pull the halves apart to reveal a perfectly formed ice sphere. There is no need to rinse it under water first. When you push on the bottom of the flexible mold, the ice ball pops up, ready for beverage service. For more information, visit www.zokuhome.com.
