In the
mid-1960s, the ice water man was a common sight.
Apart from drinks, another specialty of the
Indian ice-water seller included the shaping of ice
balls. (1)
For 5
cents, you could get a colourful red, green
syrup-coated ice ball. For 5 cents more, besides
the rich syrup, it was possible to have in the
middle of the ice ball, a scoop of cooked red
beans and milk on the ice ball. (1)
