Use them in smoothies for a hint of coffee flavor.
Garnish coffee cocktails like a white Russian.
Tips & tricks
Make different sizes or shapes for different effects and looks.
Try different kinds of coffee and find what flavor you like best. Whether you buy ground coffee or coffee beans, some coffees taste better than others.
If you have really flimsy ice cube trays, like silicone ice cube trays, place them on a baking sheet before you pour coffee into the slots. This will keep them sturdy and steady as you transfer them to the freezer.
