Your mother liquor is already very close to being a cryoprotectant. I
think adding 5% ethylene glycol, glycerol, etc. is enough. Too much
may damage your crystals. In addition, you can also try:

1. Grow new crystals in your current crystallization condition + 5%
cryoprotectant.

2. Increase the PEG in your reservoir to 40% and allow vapor diffusion
to gently dehydrate your crystals to allow direct freezing.
