Can you specify only a few pieces of ice?

That’s why I always request no ice. They are going to dilute the drink anyway, so I’m not going to add to it by getting ice on top.

No ice for me either. Even at home, when I drink from a can or bottle, I use a koozie or freezer mug.
I’ve seen those Yeti tumblers (very pricy!) and saw a review of a Yeti go tumbler on Youtube compared to other less expensive stainless steel tumblers and the Yeti keeps drinks hot or cold longer.
Heck, I sometimes don’t even mind drinking soda at room temperature.

I don’t like ice in most drinks. I drink hot drinks warm, and cold drinks at room temperature.

I find that the pop is usually cold enough for me straight from the fountain, so ice is unnecessary.

Sonic has no problem when I order a Route 44 Limeade with easy ice.
It even displays easy ice on the display. I don’t want 44 oz of ice and 4 ounces of liquid.

Im on the other end.
My hot drinks are blazing hot and my cold drinks are teeth hurting cold. My dad drinks his beer room temp and his bottled water warm. Crazy!

Ice is okay in iced tea! Imagine that!!!!!?

Reminds me of visiting Brit friend who insisted on “no Ice” in McDonald’s because she was convinced she was being short-changed. (Ice in drinks is a scarce commodity in England!)

Because it slows down the service for the other patrons in line.

My philosophy about beer is; if you let your beer get warm, you’re drinking it too slow. LOL

I do tend to let my coffee cool down a bit before taking a drink. I don’t add cool water to my cup of coffee because that waters down the taste. And I drink my coffee black. No cream or sugar.

I assume so, my brother always asks for “very little ice”, but myself personally I like a lot of ice. This wouldn’t apply to Starbucks, but so many fast food places have unlimited refills that no one has reason to complain.
Not that that’s going to stop ‘em!
