Please be careful with usage of ice especially during summer months from outside stalls..I know it is tempting to have but The quality is often compromised.
Hyderabad has many stalls selling sugar cane juice with crushed ice and soda hubs. I personally do not prefer these as my 2 close relatives/ friend got unwell after having outside sugar cane juice.
