Ice Ball Molds

1. Fill plastic or silicone ice ball molds with water, per the instructions for the specific type you have. Ice ball molds should be at least 2 inches in size.

2. Place the molds in the freezer. Leave them to freeze completely for at least two to three hours.

3. Remove the ice balls from the freezer and carefully remove the molds to reveal the giant ice balls. Use tongs or a spoon to gently place each one in a drinking glass. Avoid dropping it in to avoid cracking the ball.

Muffin Pan Mold

1. Fill each jumbo muffin cup three-fourths of the way full with water. Jumbo muffin cups should be at least 2 inches deep. Use a plastic or silicone muffin pan for easy removal.

2. Place the muffin pan in the freezer until the water is frozen solid.

3. Twist the muffin pan gently to pop out the ice cubes. You may need to run hot water over the back of the pan briefly to get them out. The ice will not be perfectly round, but with its large size, it works just the same.

Frozen Balloons

1. Fill clean latex balloons with water, adding just enough that the balloons fit comfortably inside a cocktail glass. Tie the end closed, making the balloon shape as round as possible.

2. Freeze the water-filled balloons on a baking tray in the freezer until fully frozen, about three to four hours.

3. Remove the frozen water balloons from the freeze and use scissors to cut away the latex balloon, leaving a large, rounded ice ball.
