Answer:

Iced water.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a solid. Within a given substance, such as water, particles in the solid state have the least amount of kinetic energy.

As water freezes, it does so because after thermal energy leaves the particles, the average translational+rotational kinetic energy decreases, but the total average kinetic energy does not... and the temperature does not change either.
