So this is why I was warned to always ask for any drink without ice or ensure it is frozen mineral water... this here is the ice supplier of a roadside "cool bar" (smoothie stand). He rides up in his bicycle-rig with huge blocks of ice which he places inside a dirty rubber sack. Beating them with a large stick, he can then be seen pouring out the chunks into a dirty bucket and placing next to the fruit-smasher. Happy drinkin'!
