My son is very into the "craft cocktail" thing. He is trying to
upgrade my tastes from plain old gin and tonics to include things
like New York Sours (which are really good) Aviations, Paper
Planes, and all other kinds of cocktails I have never heard of. His
personal bar is overwhelming to me.

My not having an ice maker has nothing to do with availability. My
current freezer is ice maker capbable. It's the location that is
preventing and installation. There is no easy route for the water
line currently. I have to wait till I remodel, which will be a
couple of years at least. Until then, I am the sole filler and
emptier of ice cube trays in my house.
