Объяснение:

In the fourth century BC, Alexander the Great enjoyed icy drinks, and once he even had thirty trenches filled with snow to chill drinks for ladies' refreshment. Roman emperors enjoyed wines, fruit pulps, and juices flavored with honey. However, getting snow and ice from the faraway Alps was a challenge, and strategies to keep the ice from melting were necessary. In 1533, cream ice was brought to France by Catherine de Medici of Italy when she married King Henry II of France. She installed her personal chefs and dessert makers, and for over a hundred years, their recipes were a closely guarded secret. The introduction of the refrigerator in 1803 and the first hand-cranked ice-cream freezer in 1846 eventually made ice cream available to ordinary people, instead of just being a food that only the wealthy could afford. Today, ice cream can be enjoyed by all and is no longer planned months in advance and chilled with ice and snow in the royal palace
