That's not really any different from any fountain beverage you get at restaurant. The only difference is that DD's iced coffee comes in a clear cup so you can see exactly how much ice is there to start.

I believe researchers have calculated exactly how much ice a restaurant can put in a fountain drink to maximize profits yet not looking like they are greedy. A cup gets filled with 60% ice, then 2/3rds of it melts as you eat your meal and slowly drink the soda. When the soda is gone, you look in the cup and see about 20% ice at the bottom which seems reasonable. I always look for the ice line printed on the outside of a cup to see exactly what the corporate policy is regarding this.
