In fact, ice powder existed as early as the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Legend has it that there is a family named Wang, and there is a woman named Wang in this family. One day, when I was picking fruit on the mountain, I accidentally bumped into an ivy tree and dropped the fruit in my schoolbag.

When she got home, she found that the fruit had fallen into the bag. After taking out the fruit, she found that her bag was full of transparent pulp overflowing from the fruit. She was very surprised, so she put the pulp in a bowl and tasted it. As a result, attracted by the cool taste of ice, she poured a proper amount of brown sugar into the bowl and tasted the cool and sweet taste. From then on, he decided to sell this ice powder in the market.
