Origin
Ice water is not an ingredient with a specific origin. It is simply water that has been cooled to a temperature below its freezing point and transformed into ice or chilled to a very low temperature using ice cubes. It is commonly used as a refreshing and hydrating beverage or as a cooling agent in various culinary applications. The availability of ice water depends on the access to clean water and the ability to freeze or chill it.
