With the holidays coming up and relatives arriving, there will most definitely be a lot of drinking to look forward to. Why not do it in style? Check out these cool, literally, Drink Cooler Balls by Piet Hein.

Drink Cooler Balls are basically stainless steel balls with a super secret liquid core (80% pure water) that freeze in about an hour. Simply remove them from the freezer and place them into your favorite drink in lieu of ice cubes. Drink Cooler Balls, unlike traditional ice cubes, stay colder nearly twice as long, do not water down the drink, do not add extra flavor since they are stainless steel and are completely reusable time and time again. Best of all, they just look cool whether your glass is half full or half empty. I'd recommend getting a couple since it's going to be a long season. Cheers!
