Best Flasks and Potions for Frost

Potion of Focused Resolve for single target encounters and
Potion of Empowered Proximity for 4+ target encounters.
Warlock Healthstones and 
Abyssal Healing Potion should be used when
at low health.
Best Food for Frost
You should eat from the 
Famine Evaluator And Snack Table (or
whichever personal stat food sims highest).
Augment Runes for Frost
If you can afford it, you should use 
Battle-Scarred Augment Runes to
increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of these runes
available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them
for when you need them.
Starting in patch 8.3 you can also use the re-usable
Lightning-Forged Augment Rune to increase your primary stat by an equal
amount.
