A drink served "on the rocks" is served over ice cubes in the glass. The ice cubes help to dilute the drink over time, allowing the flavors to gradually meld together. Some spirits, such as whiskey or tequila, are commonly served on the rocks.

When a drink is served "on the rocks," it means that the drink is served over ice cubes. This term is commonly used in alcoholic beverages, such as whiskey, scotch, vodka, or cocktails.

By serving a drink on the rocks, the ice cubes help to cool the beverage and potentially dilute it slightly as the ice melts. The chilled temperature from the ice enhances the drinking experience, particularly for spirits that are often enjoyed straight or with minimal mixers. The melting ice can also mellow the flavors of the drink, making it smoother and more refreshing.

Typically, the drink is poured into a glass with ice cubes, and the desired amount of the beverage is added, leaving room for the ice. Bartenders or individuals can use tongs or ice scoops to handle and add the ice cubes to the glass. The presence of the ice cubes not only cools the drink but also adds an appealing visual element to the presentation.
