    Soft drinks from restaurant dispensers is already the worst. It tastes like slightly flavored water. Ice only manages to make it worse because it melts and make the drink even more watery, not to mention the fast food workers normally put a lot of ice so there's barely any actual drink

    I loved it. I blend a pair of ice cubes and pour it into my cold drinks, It's just delightfully refreshing to enjoy during hot weather seasons. I don't drink soda though, I prepare cold drinks from fruit juices, chocolate or oatmeal instead. Too much sugar sickens me.

    Yes, please! I put ice on every single drink. I cannot have Coke without ice, for example, or any sodas for that matter. I even add some ice on juices, not only to keep it icy, but also to make it less consistent. I don't usually add ice on water because that takes a little time and you're supposed to have water all day , but I wouldn't complain on having some ice on my water either.
    I am not sure if it is a habit or just my personal taste, but if I have anything that is not icy, it does not taste the same. I even feel that water is not as hydrating if it is not cold.

    I don't mind having some ice in my drink. However, some bartenders do that only to slightly minimize the amount of the actual drink inside a glass. I hate when it happens. I'm paying for a drink in the first place, not for the ice part.

    Sometimes I have fun and treat that ice like a candy.

    Not a huge fan of ice in beverages, mainly due to the watering down effect. If I'm ordering fast food I always ask for no ice, especially if it's the drive through and I can't get a refill.

    It depends on the drink for me, I like ice in cola and in some alcoholic drinks but otherwise I'm fine without it.

    I do not like ice cubes in my drinks. Drinks put in the refrigerator are best for me. I have a friend who can drink warm coke but I can't.
