Ice That Melts Slowly. Wrapping it in wool, styrofoam or wood contains the cold air emitting from the ice, keeping the temperature of the ice low. The resulting translucent ice isn’t just for show: A pile or cup of ice cubes have more volume to melt relative to the effective surface area to perform heat transfer compared to if you. The less surface exposed surface area, the slower the ice will melt. Using larger ice cubes slows down the melting process. A sugary beverage such as sweet tea or kool aid will allow the ice to slowly melt and actually cool the liquid to a point slightly lower. Therefore the ice spheres do appear to melt slower, chill the drink in a reasonable amount of time, and dilute the drink less. A simple solution is more ice with less surface area. Ideally, use a single ice ball (sphere) instead of multiple small ice cubes. Its crystals are more tightly bound, so it melts more slowly, preventing waterlogged beverages. Here’s how you can achieve larger ice. General insulation of the ice causes it to melt slower.
