I tend to only use clear ice made from filtered water. I don't like my homemade ice (maybe yours is better) and prefer the taste (and look) of bagged premium beverage clear ice made from filtered water. I go through the ice pretty fast so it's always fresh.

For homemade clear ice Dolewhip had a good lead here (just use filtered water and you're good to go):

Here's a somewhat labor-intensive but interesting take on the art of making clear ice from Dave Stolte, author of the spiffy little cocktail compendium, "Home Bar Basics (and Not-So-Basics)," which I notice is currently sold out (it's really worth tracking down - hope it's back in print again soon).
