LURCH silicone ice cube moulds for creative drinks in premium quality

Many inexperienced cocktail connoisseurs ask themselves this question. At the latest at the professional cocktail bar, you start to wonder why exactly the bartender "spoils" the expensive cocktail with so much ice, don't you? What seems like a cheat at first glance has three good reasons:

• Ice cubes of the right size continuously release melt water, which makes the cocktail even better. The melted water allows the flavours of the spirits in the drink to unfold and ignite new taste sensations.
• Chilled cocktails taste many times better and more aromatic than warm ones.

• They also give every drink a better visual look.

The ice cubes continuously cool the drink with the help of the melted water and thus keep the temperature in the glass constant. The enjoyment is prolonged.

Cocktails such as the Mai Tai, Cuba Libre, Margarita or Mojito are far too rich in alcohol without ice or melted water and would taste too strongly of spirits. Every good drink needs the right amount of melted water to develop its typical aromas. For this reason, there are also different sizes and shapes of ice cubes.

• Ice cubes and scoops generally go well with any long drink. The sizes 3 x 3 x 3 cm and 4 x 4 x 4 cm are the most suitable. If you are not quite sure about some drinks, use these cubes. Nothing can go wrong.
• Large ice cubes and scoops are for cocktails/drinks like the Old Fashioned, Negroni, Scotch or whiskey. These can also be enjoyed chilled. Of course, one can argue about the combination of ice and whiskey - but the right ice cubes can noticeably improve the taste and even emphasise the versatile flavours.
• Crushed ice is most suitable for daiquiris or caipirinhas, for example. Crushed ice is crushed very small and accordingly melts away quickly. This fact can unnecessarily water down your cocktail if consumed slowly.
• The better alternative to crushed ice are ice cubes or ice balls. These last longer and also look much better. For daiquiris and caipirinhas, 2 x 2 x 2 cm ice cubes and 2 cm diameter ice balls are best.

In most short drinks like Martini & Co. no ice is used. This is also due to the small glasses and the fact that they are drunk relatively quickly.

Tip: Ice balls melt more slowly than ice cubes due to their smaller surface area.

LURCH ice cube moulds are made of 100% Premium-Platinum-Silicone and are free from BPA, PTFE and PFAS. Our silicone is food-safe, tasteless and resistant to fruit acids. It also scores with maximum flexibility and dimensional stability. These properties ensure easy release of the cubes and scoops as well as uniform results.

In addition to the simple ice cube makers, we also offer ice cube moulds with lids in the ICE FORMER series. With these, you can take your home bar and drinks to a whole new level.

Our ICE FORMERs have been part of the basic equipment in the professional cocktail scene for many years and allow you completely new approaches and design variations. Instead of water, you can also freeze juices, fruits, flowers or herbs for your cocktails. This makes your drinks a real eye-catcher and an unforgettable sight at every cocktail party.

Cocktails, long drinks or punch are a welcome refreshment to end the working day on a relaxed note.

In summer, there is nothing better than enjoying a cool drink on the balcony or in the garden. It is especially nice to have your own house bar that is open all year round.
