Certainly a conversation starter. Believe I'll stick with my cracked ice though as the Bourbon doesn't last long enough to become diluted.

Who needs anything to freeze balls in this blizzard?

Re: Ice Ball Maker from Maker's Mark
Guess we better find something warm and comforting to drink. Wait, I know just the thing . . .

Re: Ice Ball Maker from Maker's Mark
I also bought a set when i was in NY from MoMA, probably prefer the red MM version as the guys do give me a bit of sh*t for having a pink set. I am a big advocate of them though as they do last for two drinks worth here in the Sunshine State.
It is no secret that I love that elixir of the gods, bourbon.

Re: Ice Ball Maker from Maker's Mark
There are all sorts of these molds available... in various sizes. Just Google "ice ball molds".

Re: Ice Ball Maker from Maker's Mark
Just a disclaimer to anyone who might be looking at ice trays made of silicone. I had a nice set a couple years back, they were perfect 1.5" cubes. After a few uses, I noticed my drinks started tasting a little off. Sure enough, it was the ice. I tried everything to wash the trays, vinegar, baking soda, regular soap and water, but nothing worked. YMMV, but that is why I like the non-silicone MM ice ball trays.

Re: Ice Ball Maker from Maker's Mark
Yes, filling is a bit annoying so I'm going to drill out a wider hole for ease of filling. I've made a dozen 1/2 balls which seemed cool. Originally Posted by p_elliott
