I've just squeezed enough for a couple of trays of ice cubes, but there will be more to come, and I wasn't sure how to store them. The zipper bag is great idea. I'm looking forward to lots of healthy lemon drinks, lemon and honey, lemon and ginger and honey, ...

Thanks for the tip. I'd also like to add that this is a great tip for a lot of different foods as well. I make vegetable stock cubes, homemade tomato sauce cubes (great for perking up store-bought sauce), pesto cubes, bean cubes, curry sauce cubes, vegetarian fake meat cubes, etc. Anything that freezes well that you might need in a small quantity can be stored this way, and it makes cooking from scratch that much easier. However, if you're going to freeze food this way, I recommend getting separtate ice cube trays.

These are great in lemonade or soda water on a hot day, or you can blend them with other fruit, yogurt, juice, etc. to make smoothies.
