1
Boil a kettle of water. (Boiled water gives you a less cloudy ice cube.) Let cool.

Pick a bunch of clean, unsprayed, unfertilized violets, or other edible flowers, in your backyard or other safe place. Some stores sell edible flowers. Gently rinse flowers.
3
Fill an ice cube tray half-full with cooled water. Place flowers in each compartment. Freeze several hours or until solid. Fill up trays with more cooled water. Freeze again until solid.
4
Make any tea of your choice. Chill.
5
Place several floral ice cubes in a tall glass. Pour chilled tea over. Garnish with mint leaves, gently crushed to release oils, and lemon slices.
