Supercooled water

You can cool water below its stated freezing point and then crystallize it into ice on command. This is known as supercooling.
Supercooling, also known as undercooling, is the process of lowering the temperature of a liquid or a gas below its freezing point without it becoming a solid.
A liquid crossing its standard freezing point will crystalize in the presence of a seed crystal or nucleus around which a crystal structure can form creating a solid. Lacking any such nuclei, the liquid phase can be maintained all the way down to the temperature at which crystal homogeneous nucleation occurs. Homogeneous nucleation can occur above the glass transition temperature, but if homogeneous nucleation has not occurred above that temperature, an amorphous (non-crystalline) solid will form.
Water normally freezes at 273.15 K (0 °C or 32 °F), but it can be "supercooled" at standard pressure down to its crystal homogeneous nucleation at almost 224.8 K (−48.3 °C/−55 °F). The process of supercooling requires that water be pure and free of nucleation sites, which can be achieved by processes like reverse osmosis (I used reverse osmosis water) or chemical demineralization, but the cooling itself does not require any specialised technique.
You can initiate crystallization into ice in several different ways. Three of the most entertaining ways to cause the water to freeze are to shake the bottle, drop the ice into the water or to open the bottle and pour the water onto a piece of ice.

I think you can drink it. At least at I have. I found my garage freezer supercools liquids near the top and I supercool waters and propel then shake them and they are like a slushie

Once I was able to supercool tapwater, but it’s rare that tap water supercools. It took like 20 tries.

I tried to make a supercooled water video, but it didn’t go as I planned. I had a bottle of water stored outside for many hours with temperatures dropping to around 25 degrees Fahrenheit, and I gave the bottle of water a good shake 3 times. It stayed liquid. When I took everything inside the water started to freeze, and 30 seconds later I looked and the water in the bottle was frozen. I was shocked. Does anyone know why this happened?

It's because any small change in the circumstances and agitation in the situation could make supercool water freeze

I’m just here because I have hyperemesis and can’t keep water down. So I’m fantasizing about the days of just being able to enjoy an ice cold water without vomiting 😞

do water have to go through crystallization to become ice? Like amorphous ice? If yes, how can this be achieved?

All ice is crystalline
But what happen if coll it more down like -100 C°?
Wow!

It actually doesn’t have to be ice. It can be anything that ice crystals can form on.
Wow
Metastable state of water 💦
Shouldn't you just dump the whole water bottle?
Is it just normal water being frozen without any chemical such as nitrogen ?

The purer the water the better. Any impurities in the water might be a point for the ice crystal to start growing without aggitation. So if you really wanna try this and be sure to succeed, try distilled water😁 maybe try put multiple bottles in the freezer at the same time and once you see 1 of them be frozen you'll know the rest should be now supercooled😁
I want to drink that at 3 am
Just dump the whole water bottle?
