Nordic Rock

"Nordic Rock is mined from ancient Swedish pollution-free base rock. It is the purest way of cooling your drink.

Stone does not melt, which means no unclean water in your glass. They are also reusable making them very eco-friendly.

To use, simply place the stone ice cubes in the freezer for approximately one hour before use. For a normal glass, two or three Nordic Rocks will be fine. They give off their cold gradually and equally."

Ah yes. It also comes with a leather pouch. Bring on those pure-pollution-free-Swedish-rocks.

Convenience

Starbucks Arcaffe is like that crazy ex-girlfriend you still get together with:

You hate yourself for going back, but the familiarity makes it convenient, and until you find something better, it’s all you’ve got.
