So if we can produce this, can this have a practical use like in freezers/coolers. Or even in drinks? How cold is Ice XVIII and XIX?

The benefit of ice in drinks is its coldness, not its solidness.

But if your drinks aren't chewy are you truly living?

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.
