    Sounds like the same thing that happens at 0°C with very pure water that stays liquid, but shake it and bam! It insta-freezes.

      Sometime water bottles display this trait in temps just below freezing. Liquid water in the bottle but break the seal and pop! Frozen

      Doesn’t have to be pure for that! I’ve seen it happen with those cheap plastic sleeve popsicles. It’s kind of fun flicking them and watching the ice radiate through.
