Add a touch of the macabre to your next social drink with these [stainless steel skull drink chillers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drink-gems) by Welland.

Available in sets of four, these unique drink cubes are made from shiny stainless steel, and are perfect for chilling down [whiskey, beer, wine, spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whiskey-decanters) or really just any drink you would like to enjoy at a cool temperature. Because they are made from steel, these [skull-shaped drink accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-sour-scary-skulls) are able to reach an ideal chilling temperature, but won't melt down and dilute your drink like a normal ice cube would.

These stainless steel skull heads are also rounded so they won't scrape or scratch your glass, and are heavy enough that they stay at the bottom of the glass while drinking. So let loose and get a little spooky next time you're about to enjoy a drink and pop a skull or two into your favorite libation.
