Unicorn Vodka Ice
Unicorn Vodka Ice is a subtle bit of magic in your glass. Imagine dropping ice into a glass in front of a guest, but it’s a beautiful, natural shade of cobalt blue. As it melts over the next few minutes, it gradually changes the color of the drink and adds a light, floral note to the finish—no artificial coloring or flavoring involved.

Can you freeze vodka?
Straight vodka will not turn to ice in a conventional freezer, because ethanol freezes at about -174 degrees Fahrenheit. You can (and should) keep any kind of vodka in the freezer in order to keep it crisp for your next cocktail, but where cocktails call for ice in the glass, the cold liqueur is not enough.
Ice inevitably melts, diluting a carefully crafted drink. So many bartenders and mixologists turn to mixing a little bit of alcohol with water in order to freeze it. That way, as the ice melts in a guest’s glass, the drink doesn’t suffer—at least not as much.
Unicorn Vodka Ice adds yet another improvement. Not only will it keep a good cocktail from becoming watered down, but as the ice melts, the natural blue color will change the look of the drink as well—enhancing, rather than diluting, the entire experience.
