Sphere Clear Ice System

The kind of ice you get at a good cocktail bar — one large, slow-melting sphere that chills the glass without watering down what's in it.

The details

This is a full system, not just a tray. It makes four 2.5-inch ice balls at a time, and the insulated housing directs how the water freezes so the spheres come out clear and dense rather than cloudy. Because a sphere has less surface area than cubes, it melts slowly — your drink stays cold and stays strong. The sealed design keeps freezer odors out of the ice, and the whole thing stacks flat to save space. It's made of silicone and BPA-free nylon and comes apart for the dishwasher.
