We've all faced the nightmare combination of a hot summer day and a way-too-warm beverage. You could turn to your freezer, air conditioner, or some ice for a little refrigeration, but none of them will transform your warm one into a cold one as fast as the Cooper Cooler drink chiller. For just $80, the toaster-size gadget cools drinks in minutes — cans of beer or soda chill out in 60 seconds, while a bottle of wine will take about 6 minutes. It works by spraying a jet of cold water over the can or bottle, so you'll have to keep reloading the thing with ice and water if you have more than a six-pack to cool. But for those upcoming summer barbecues, you won't get freezing this fast short of hiring Captain Cold. For $10 more, you can get the Tailgater model, which has cables for connecting to your car's lighter socket. — Peter Pachal
