When water freezes, it expands and takes up more volume than the water did. That's why ice floats in water. When the ice thaws, it contracts, taking up less volume. If you fill a container to the rim with water and then freeze it, the ice will rise above the rim because of the expansion as it freezes.

oh i must of read the question wrong. its either that theres not enough ice(more water comes, you can barely see it) or, youre justing drinking while it melts.

Why do ice cubes not take the shape of its container?

Ice cubes do not take the shape of their container because they are solid and maintain a fixed shape due to the rigid arrangement of their molecules. Unlike liquids, which can flow and conform to the shape of their container, solids have strong intermolecular forces that keep their structure intact. As a result, ice cubes retain their cubic form regardless of the container they are placed in.
