How cold is Ice XVIII and XIX?

Up to 5000K at up to 200 GPa. So to answer your question:

can this have a practical use like in freezers/coolers. Or even in drinks?

No.

You'd add one cube to cool down your tea and it'd blow up your house.

It's been a long day and somehow this comment really made me laugh. It's so perfect and dumb. I love it.
