Interesting colors and lights here. Most of the pic seems like the ice and glass, tho.

The simple composition works here pretty well. The challenge did specify no water, though...

So much of this involves ice that I feel it doesn't do a good job of capturing either the 'liquid' or the 'non-water' parts. The liquid in the glass does appear to be something other than water, though it's hard to tell.

Now, if this were just a glass of wine, shot at that same level of lighting, angle, same backdrop, etc., I would probably have thought it was quite pretty and on topic, but the ice also sort of mars the 'pretty' part.

Looks like you have a minor 'hot pixel' or lighting artifact problem just over from the glass base., by the way.

a cool picture, but i think it would look cooler if you did this with a nice blue/white gradient background.

I thought ice IS water, and is NOT liquid.
Nice closeup, somewhat cliché, but good contrasts of colors/lighting.
