FROSTY BEVERAGES

With your International Harvester Refrigerator to provide you with a generous supply of ice cubes, you will be serving many cooling, colorful beverages in the summer time. Here are some suggestions for making these mid-afternoon and evening pick-ups especially refreshing.

ICE CUBES FOR COLD DRINKS

Use either crushed or whole cubes. Crushed ice cools beverages more quickly; cubes last longer and add a pleasant tinkle.

FANCY ICE CUBES

Freeze curls of lemon or orange peel, maraschino cherries with stems, or sprigs of mint, a raspberry or strawberry in ice cubes.

Freeze leftover fruit drinks in the ice-cube trays to serve in iced tea or other beverages.

For fancy cubes, freeze the cubes slowly to prevent cloudiness and expansion. If fruit is to be frozen in the cube, fill tray ⅓ full of liquid, partially freeze and add fruit. Allow to freeze into position. Add water to within ¼ inch of top of tray and finish freezing.
