Pulling apart ice cubes can be super annoying, especially if you have to start hacking at it. Luckily, that problem can be easily solved by storing your ice in a paper bag.

Prepare your ice as usual, then pour the cubes into the paper bag and put it in the freezer. Next time you open the bag, the ice cubes will still be neatly separated.

Paper bags work because they keep moisture away from the ice. The bag absorbs moisture, unlike plastic containers that trap it, making the ice melt a bit so it refreezes together.
