Water ice is a frozen form of water, typically created by lowering the temperature of liquid water to 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) or below. It is commonly found in nature, such as in glaciers, icebergs, and snow. Water ice plays a crucial role in Earth's climate and ecosystems, reflecting sunlight and influencing weather patterns. In addition to its natural occurrences, water ice is also a popular treat, often referred to as ice or sorbet. This dessert is made by freezing flavored water, resulting in a refreshing and sweet snack enjoyed in various cultures. Water ice can be found in many forms, including shaved ice and Italian ice.
