The 10 Biggest Mistakes You're Making With Ice Cubes, According To Camper English
A Mention of The Ice Book in Scientific American

Clear ice cubes make cocktails taste better. Really

In the San Francisco Chronicle's Bite Curious newsletter, Caleb Pershan blames me for his new ice obsession. Fair. 

Clear ice cubes make cocktails taste better. Really

 

I think this way because of Camper English, a drinks writer in San Francisco, who recently published a book on the subject, “The Ice Book: Cool Cubes, Clear Spheres, and Other Chill Cocktail Crafts.” English has been writing about techniques for making clear ice since 2009. It’s what he described to me, with an ironic groan, as a “slippery slope.”

“Eventually you wind up like me, just a broken person who can only use certain cubes or I would just rather go thirsty.”
