I am living in Italy for a semester. I bought a bottle of Absolut Vodka from the supermarket yesterday, put it in the freezer like I always do, and when I opened up my freezer the vodka in the bottle was frozen almost completely solid, I'd say at least 95% frozen. I was under the impression that it was (nearly) impossible for hard liquor to freeze, and have never seen it happen before. What gives?!
Bear in mind...
It still has the plastic seal around the cap, nobody could have tampered with it or watered it down. Additionally, it still has the official Italian liquor and tobacco stamp on it, so it seems unlikely that it is fake. It's marked as 80 proof, just like always.
Also, liquor freezes at -175 degrees Fahrenheit, there is no way my freezer is that cold.
Ideas?

I live by myself in an apartment. There's nobody here that could have done something like that. I just bought another bottle and am going to put it in the freezer. We'll see what happens with that. I purchased it from a different supermarket.

I would double-check that seal. I think that your kids or your cleaner has been nipping on it and replacing the vodka with water. There is no physical way that a bottle of vodka could freeze at the 10 degrees or so that your freezer is probably set to.

there is no way that what is in that bottle is pure vodka. my absolute lives in the freezer all the time. it has a slightly syrupy consistancy, but thats all. that plastic shrinkwrap around the top can easily be removed intact if you are careful. sounds like someone at the store where you purchased it has a drinking problem & replaced what they consumed with water.

Each alcohol, wine has its own freezing point. In general for all, the best is between 14 to 17 Celisus---you might want to translate this to other units by yourself, sorry about the inconvinent. Maybe you should put it in the refregerator instead of freezer, refregerator will also cools your vodka down and won't freeze it.

80 evidence is 40% alcohol. which skill 60% water. between the strategies that human beings used to pay interest alcohol replaced into to freeze the mash. The water might freeze and that they might pour off the centred alcohol. What iced up on your bottle replaced into the water. What did not freeze replaced into the alcohol. And, confident, this is the thank you to cut up the two.

You bought a very expensive bottle of watered down Vodka. No telling where it happened, but it did happen. There is NO other explaination.
