    Default Do You Like Ice In Your Drink?

    Most cafes, restaurants, and bars in the UK offer ice in drinks as an optional choice.... but some (particularly foreign-run cafes) have this extremely annoying habit of automatically putting a load of crushed ice into peoples smoothies, fruit juices, etc, without asking the customer beforehand if they want ice.

    The reasons why I don't like ice in my drink are:

    1.) Ice is unhealthy and causes stomach cramps and pains.

    2.) Health experts recommend drinking still filtered water at room temperature which is more compatible with the body temperature, rather than drinking cold or ice-cold drinks.

    3.) The water used in ice cubes isn't filtered most of the time and has an unpleasant taste and contains impurities.

    4.) As soon as the ice quickly melts in the heat, the drink becomes all watery and diluted, and the flavour and texture of the drink is weakened, impaired, and ruined.

    No I only like ice in water if I want it to be more cold.

    A good cafe, restaurant, or bar will ask people beforehand if they want ice in their drinks, instead of automatically assuming people want their drinks filled to the brim with a load of crushed ice.

    I abstain from it when I'm in the Philippines (for safety reasons) but when I'm here ? Yes. Summer and winter.



    Wake up and smell the coffee.

    Yes, in America they always put ice in a drink unless you ask them not to.

    No. It makes the drink too watery, and is not healthy to introduce extremely cold liquids into your body.
