Instantly Freeze A Beer Or Another Bottled Drink

Supercooling is a scientific process in which a liquid chills to below zero degrees but maintains its liquid state. Once the liquid is disturbed, a chemical reaction will occur that freezes it solid. Dazzle your friends and family with this gag, using a supercooled beer or bottled drink.


Instructions


1. Go to your local store and buy your beverage. Beer is commonly used for this trick, but distilled water works best.


2. Put your drink in the freezer. Make sure your beverage is unopened and sealed. The container's inner surface must be smooth and free of floating debris.


3. Wait until the beer or bottled drink drops below zero degrees for it to be supercooled. The time it takes for this to happen will depend on the heaviness of the beverage. Beer takes longer than water.


4. Remove your supercooled beer or bottled drink carefully from the freezer. Sudden movements, bumps or anything that disturbs the liquid could freeze it solid unexpectedly.


5. Tap, open or shake your beverage. This causes the liquid molecules to react, and your supercooled drink will freeze solid in a matter of seconds.
