Ice cubes are small, roughly cube-shaped pieces of ice, conventionally used to cool beverages. Ice cubes are often preferred over crushed ice because they melt more slowly; they are standard in mixed drinks that call for ice, in which case the drink is said to be "on the rocks." Ice cubes are produced domestically by filling an ice cube tray with water and placing it in a freezer. Many freezers also come equipped with an icemaker, which produces ice cubes automatically and stores them in a bin from which they can be dispensed directly into a glass.
Isterninger er små, groft terning-formede stykker af is, konventionelt anvendes til kølige drikkevarer. Isterninger foretrækkes ofte over knust is fordi de smelter langsommere; de er standard i blandede drikkevarer, som kræver is, i hvilket tilfælde drikken siges at være "on the rocks." Is terninger er produceret indenlandsk ved at udfylde en ice cube bakke med vand og placere det i en fryser. Mange frysere er også udstyret med en ismaskine, som producerer isterninger automatisk og gemmer dem i en bin, hvorfra de kan udleveres direkte i et glas.
