It makes sense if you've ever tried to make ice like that yourself. It's harder than it sounds

For Negronis and other cocktails I'm guessing

Buy once. Use forever.

These are real and they really are $5 for 4 premade ice cubes

At that point, why not just buy a permanent reusable solution like whiskey stones?

Sure, maybe you like your drink watered down, but then JUST USE YOUR ICE MAKER or water down your drink.

I saw these at my aldis this week too.

I only found it funny since I have not seen fried or any either variation of ice cubes.

And freedom costs $1.05.

Could they make some faceted like a diamond and perfectly clear?

Do they have the technology?

saw these the other week. was like over a dollar a cube. wtf. they are more expensive than the ice cream novelties around them. who the heck is buying this and I mean aldi. not exactly the rich mans grocer.

Yeah but are they imported from Japan?

This is either the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen or it has some use for someone well above my pay grade.

Honestly I see these being super useful stocked at a decent liquor store for when you're hosting company. But at ALDI? Seems like the wrong market. I shop at ALDI, I'd buy these once to have with my scotch for a novelty. But not regularly.

Frozen ice cubes? Are there other types of ice cubes?
