These are great to pop into drinks instead of ice cubes, with the added benefit of not diluting your drink as they melt, and giving your drink a refreshing, lemony zing. And they look nice, too!

Here’s the best way to go about it:

1.   Slice your lemons into wedges – depending on the size of your lemons, either into quarters or eighths.

2.   Place the lemons in a single layer on a sheet on baking paper on a baking tray, and place in the freezer for several hours until frozen.  This step is important as it will prevent them from freezing together in a block.

3.   Once frozen, tip the wedges into a Ziploc bag, squeeze as much air out as possible and seal.

If you like, you can cut your lemons into thin round slices and do the same – but be aware that this will take a little more freezer space when freezing them on trays.
