I very rarely chill a distilled spirit in the freezer, but the other night I placed a 750ml bottle of Appleton Special (40% or 80 proof) in it. With 1/2 of the bottle left, I took a look at the bottle the next morning to find the contents slushy and cloudy. Any of you fine folks experience similar proof spirits freezing up on them. this link says that 86 proof liquor will freeze at -30f. I have chilled vodkas before without any problems. I don't think my fridge's freezer is anything close to -30f. Any clues or theories?
