Answer:

The water at zero degree will already be having the latent heat of fusion

thus on absorbing heat the temperature of the water will rise

instead if we use ice at 0 degree the heat absorbed will be converted into latent heat and thus more effective cooling ( water has a high value of latent heat of fusion)
