Funky Fixes: Chill out with a Chill Pill

Has anyone ever told you to take a chill pill? Or, more importantly, have you ever wanted to tell a friend to calm down and take a chill pill? Now, thanks to the Chill Pill Ice Cube Tray by Fred & Friends, you actually can! This clever ice cube tray adds the perfect amount of playfulness to any iced beverage. Simply fill the tray with water and place in the freezer. Once the chill pills have frozen, you are ready to drop one of these bad boys in your friend’s drink. For a funky twist on the typical ice cube, try freezing your favorite beverage. As the ice melts, this will prevent your drink from becoming watered down. Coffee ice cubes anyone?
