Cracked ice melts faster and it is smaller than cubes, cracked ice is used for frozen drinks and in blenders. Cracked ice is also good for homemade drinks because it does not take long to melt.

Shaved ice is very fine ice that is used to make shakes thicker and smoother. You can also use it to make snow cones. Another commonly used ice form is blocked ice, this ice is used for drinks such as brandy and whisky it takes time to melt and it keeps the drink tasty and enjoyable.
