Roomies got a nice new blender, just got some xanthan gum in so I figured as hot as it is it's time for some alcohol freezes.
Anyone unaccustomed to xanthan gum: it's a stabilizer/thickener that will make smoothies/frapaccinos/etc not separate. Useful for artificially thickening most anything (sometimes great for fixing a dip that came out too thin). Stuffs great to have around because it only takes a tiny tiny amount for it to do it's thing, so buying it will likely last you nearly forever.
That's a cool tip! I bought a pound of xantham gum over a year ago and despite using it to thicken sauces and jellies somewhat often there's still basically a whole pound there
