An improved ice cube making and storing system including an ice cube tray, a container for storing and/or serving ice cubes, and a lid for the container. The ice cube tray includes a plurality of separate freezing compartments for forming ice cubes, and incorporates a liquid drain arrangement so that excess water may be removed from the freezing compartments before the tray is transferred to the freezer. The lid may be used as a support for the liquid-filled ice cube tray, to catch any liquid overflow or spillage during filling or transfer to the freezer. The ice cube tray fits directly onto the open end of the ice cube container, so that ice cubes are ejected directly into the container from the tray.
