    Instructions: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    1. To create beautiful ice spheres, start by filling sphere-shaped ice molds with orange, blood orange, or grapefruit juice. Before sealing, carefully tuck a leaf into the opening, ensuring the stem and a bit of the leaf’s bottom are submerged. <\/li>
    2. Place the molds in the freezer for about 4 hours or, for best results, overnight. <\/li>
    3. Once fully frozen, gently remove the top part of the mold, being careful not to tear the leaves. <\/li>
    4. Transfer the ice spheres into a glass, pour some Blanc de Blancs<\/a> over them, and enjoy!<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
