The salt will reduce the temperature of the ice/water well below freezing, while the water allows close thermal contact with the glass/plastic.

These are most often consumed in Crystal Light, diet sodas and ‘sugar-free’ products.

Think of them as toxins (because they are) that slow down your body’s metabolism. Drink plenty of water.
