Illustration: At a kitchen counter in a Japanese home, a child uses small tongs to drop chunky ice cubes into a glass of barley tea. An open ice tray and a bowl of extra cubes sit close by. The cubes are hard, translucent, and wet at the edges, with small meltwater puddles gathering beneath the bowl.
