I bought a nice bottle of wine and then put it in the freezer and forgot about it.

It froze and blew the cork out, but i thawed the winecicle and now it's all liquid again. a sip tastes pretty funky.

did it always taste like this, or did the freeze alter the flavor? would you still drink it?

why did you put a nice bottle of wine in the freezer?

to quickly chill a white?

Freezing changes the flavor, but you could still drink it. Or cook with it. Or, if it tastes a bit odd, mix in some fruit juice and seltzer and make a wine cooler out of it.

hm. i don't think we have any fruit juice now, so maybe i'll crush up some blueberries or strawberries for it.

to quickly chill a white?

yep. then we ended up going to out instead.

not just wine but putting things in the freezer to cool more quickly and then forgetting about them

thankfully canadians provide the answer, the wine doesn't really suffer unduly so long as it isn't full
