iced cocktail
Cold mixed beverage
An iced cocktail is a mixed alcoholic drink served cold, typically with ice cubes or crushed ice.
The term is somewhat redundant since most cocktails are served chilled by default—a bartender wouldn't need to specify "iced" for a margarita or martini.
The phrase appears more often in older drink menus or when distinguishing from warm cocktails like toddies.
