about coffee- ice coffee , iced coffee and coffee mix

As I know of, iced coffee is commonly used word but what about just 'ice coffee'? Is it wrong?

And is 'coffee mix' right word when referring mix in which coffee, sugar and cream are mixed in one pack?

--->I mean this!

com/ice%26r%3D67&usg=AFQjCNG2uJMh0o96NYL7WdGa68IkmyCsqA " . I think it natural to assume that the difficulty of pronunciation alone will speed the transition from 'iced' to 'ice' for both coffee and tea. The latter is hardly 'wrong', but I will keep using 'iced' when I am writing.

So, 'iced lemon tea' is the correct form instead of 'ice lemon tea', right?

What exactly do you mean by "mixed coffee"? Do you mean a flavored coffee beverage like what you might get at Starbucks?
