WE REVEAL THE SECRETS OF THE ADVERTISERS AND WE MAKE TRANSPARENT ICE CUBES!
Have you noticed how beautiful and crystal clear the ice cubes look in the ads? We reveal the secrets of the advertisers and make transparent ice cubes!
Wouldn't it be great for our water, our coffee, and all our cool drinks to have clear crystal ice cubes, just like in the ads? While the water is clear, when we freeze it it becomes ice with a milky opaque color. This is mainly due to the oxygen content of the water and some other elements, such as salts. Advertisers, for speed reasons, make ice cubes with distilled water.
If we freeze distilled water, a completely clean and transparent ice will result. But we can not use ice cubes from distilled water in our coffee, soft drinks and beverages, as distilled water is not suitable for drinking.
But there is another simple and easy way to make transparent, crystal ice cubes.
All we have to do is boil the water we will use.
1. First we fill the ice box that we will use with bottled water.
2. Pour the water from the ice box into a saucepan and add a little more water, to replace the amount that will evaporate with boiling.
3. Put the lid on the pot and boil it for 5-6 minutes. Then, leave it for a while so that the boiling stops so as not to risk burning, but it should not cool completely.
4. Put it in the ice box and put it in the freezer.
In 3 hours our crystal ice cubes will be ready and very impressive!
