Review: Whiskey Stones By Iron Stones


I have to admit, I don't normally drink whiskey on the rocks but when I had the opportunity to try these whiskey stones, I was definitely interested in giving it a try.

I am now a convert! I will say I used these drink stones in my regular drink to keep it cold and loved it since I never seem to have ice made and ready to go in my freezer.

To get started, wash the stones and let dry. I put the dry stones in my freezer for the recommended 2-3 hours and used them in my seltzer to cool it down. I had no issues. The only pointer I would give is to really use a glass that's wide at the bottom so the stones lay in a single layer and don't stack. I can how stacking the stones could potentially crack the glass or even your teeth if you aren't careful.

Once I was done using the stones in my drink, I washed them again and let them dry. They are now in my freezer ready to be used at any time.

The only thing about these stones I found funny is the box, there was a typo on it so I hope they've corrected that for anyone else that purchases these.

The Iron Stones Whiskey Stones are available on Amazon.

XY QY7 Bluetooth Headphones

I recently had the chance to try out these XY Bluetooth headphones. I haven't had much experience with Bluetooth headphones as these are only the second pair I've tried but I really liked using these.

If you are like me, you constantly get tangled up in your earbud or headphone cords in your way because they always seem to be in your way. With these I didn't have the issue, the cord wraps around the back of your neck when using them.

They are very easy to use straight from the box - simply charge these up, follow the instructions and pair with your phone and you are ready to use. These paired quickly with my Android phone and the sound was clear and crisp.

I really like that you are able to pair two Bluetooth devices at the same time with one set of headphones. You can stream music and answers calls -- a great bonus feature.

Overall, these headsets are a win win for me. You can find the XY headphones on Amazon in white or black.
