    Default drinks without ice

    Hi,

    When you order something in a restaurant for example a drink but you dont want ice in it, is there a term that you would use to mean its natural temperature, without using the term "no ice, please"?? like water, juice...
    Thanks loads.

    Hello Carla,

    You could specify the temperature, e.g. "at room temperature, please"; but it would be an unusual thing to do. In ordinary usage, you would simply add "no ice" after the name of the drink.

    Best wishes,

    MrP
