Sucking ice on shabbat

Question:

May one hold ice and suck it on shabbat. for example grape juice that froze into an ice cube. thank you

Answer:

It is permitted and it is not an issue of molid because the liquid is going straight into your mouth. It is also not an issue of sechita, one of the reasons is because it is not the normal way to squeeze things.
