This article, ‘How to Make Any Warm Drink Cold in 2 Minutes! WOW, I Had NO Idea!’ is based on simple grade school level science.
Adding salt to the ice water will cause the salt to separate itself into its sodium and chloride ions; it makes the water molecules orient themselves accordingly, and since water is a polar molecule, it means there are partial charges on opposite ends of the molecule. Stirring the drinks causes the heat to transfer out of the drinks and into the ice water, while the cold transfers into the drinks.
The simple trick described above utilizes the Second Law of Thermodynamics and the video demonstrates this trick step-by-step.
Stirring the drinks causes the heat to transfer out of the drinks and into the ice water, while the cold transfers into the drinks.
This heat transfer causes the temperature of both the beverages and the water to be the same and eventually equilibrium is established.
