I brought this up in another thread and did not want to hijack it How to make smoked ice cubes for Bloody Mary's etc (might be good in bourbon, never tried it as im a neat guy)Now some may think you just put a bowl of water in the smoker, sorry but that is incorrect as you only have a small surface.Whats needed:Metal bowl, Metal strainer or Colander (this is optional), Water, Sacrificial ice cube trays, Freezer (preferably not the one in the house) and a SmokerStep 1, Pour water into ice cube trays and transform into a solid in a freezer Step 2, Get smoker going after water has set up Step 3, Put ice cubes into strainer and place strainer over metal bowl (preferred by me) or just put in metal bowlStep 4, Place bowl into smoker and smoke till ice cubes have transformed back into a liquid (whatever setting and whatever level of smoke you like, experiment)Step 5 pour smoked water back into ice cube trays and transform back into a solid in the freezer (note the freezer and contents will take on a smokey smell (baking soda is your friend after) so will the ice cube traysStep 6, Make up some Bloody Mary's of your choosing and use how ever many smoked ice cubes you prefer.Trick is smoking ice cubes makes every layer of water as it melts absorb smoke

Liquid smoke is water-soluble. I get the natural smoking kick and enjoy smoking meats. However, why not just stir in a little liquid smoke and make the ice cubes just once? I know, blasphemy.
