How do you shut down an ice maker for the winter?
If there is a basement, locate the pipe where it goes through the exterior wall leading to the outside water faucet. This is your starting point.

Do the same for each and every other outside faucet.
If there is no basement, you will have to access the shutoff valves by going into the crawl space. (I would take bug spray with me because of the spiders and their webs!)

If you search for flavored ice maker in Google Patents you will find a patent for "Flavored Ice Maker Cartridge" . So, a patent for what you're trying to do has been issued.
If you pour Coke into your ice maker, you'll need to make sure the water to your ice maker is turned off. Once the ice maker has emptied of ice you can pour the Coke into the ice maker. Once the Coke is frozen, the ice maker will automatically empty. Then you can keep pouring Coke or whatever liquid you want into the ice maker every time it has harvested the ice.
Once you've turned water back on to the ice maker for normal operation, you'll probably be having Coke flavored ice for a while, but other than that you shouldn't have any problems.
Who the inventor of the artificial ice machine?
Dr. John Gorrie was the first in the US to receive a patent for a machine which would cool & condense air artificially, producing quantities of ice in the process.
He was issued patent #8080 on May 6, 1851 for an "ICE MACHINE" - the culmination of years of research & experimentation trying to generate artificial ice to use for medical reasons, cooling the rooms of sick patients long after winter had passed.
Although Gorrie's principles are still used in modern-day ice making, he was never properly recognized in his own time for this pioneering work. Low demand, a sometimes-unreliable machine, and the strong opposition of the ice lobby made it impossible for Gorrie to find any investors to support his invention.
Instead, he was ridiculed into seclusion and, unable to find investors to perfect & manufacture his machine, died humiliated, alone, and penniless.
