A friend who works in advertising tried to tell me people only like ice cold drinks today because of some ad campaign created in like 1930. I guess she never heard about the ancient Romans having ice hauled in from Switzerland.
In the scolding hot summer, I only like ice in my beverage because of an campaign in the 30s, not because it makes the drink colder and feels more refreshing.
Rome was once covered in ice.
