Blast the hosepipe in there for a couple of min's

it's probably just algae, or maybe some sort of clagging reaction between different types of screen wash additive. it'll happen eventually as, unlike the coolant, the washer fluid isn't circulated and sits stagnant

just take the bottle off and flush it through, or disconnect hose and do it in-situ
