Lid- The lid eases refilling by having to remove it.
Ice pole: This holds the ice tasked to keep the beverage cold. It is done without the beverage getting diluted. Dry ice can be used in such a case.
Clear container: This works to hold the beverage. Its clarity is meant to give a visual appeal to the beverage it is holding and, in some cases, for safety purposes, as it is easier to know if there is a foreign object in the beverage when the container can be seen through. Since it is vulnerable to damage, it should be handled properly.
