Ice won't affect the benefits of any kind of tea, but be careful drinking any ice cold beverages (especially on an empty stomach, or when you're touchy) unless you know you do okay with that. As a corollary, drinking very hot tea when you're touchy can give you the added benefits of the heat, which is a muscle relaxant.
