Okay, everybody, here's the deal.
A company is making a product called Palcohol. Powdered alcohol. And I thought, "BUT HOW CAN THIS BE?!"
So I did a bit more searching. This article gives an explanation and a recipe for making your own powdered alcohol using a very fluffy and absorbent tapioca maltodextrin.
And I thought about it for a little while. And I realized all I would need is this: http://www.nuts.com/cookingbaking/salts/malic-acid.html and the superfine sugar I already have, maybe some flavoring, or I could use interestingly-flavored alcohols to begin with, and this http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/1778/ -- and I could make caffeinated alcoholic pixy stix that you could set on fire.
Science.
I told this to my friend Johnny. Who told his friends, including a certain Mz Maau. AND THIS IS THE BEAUTIFUL RESULT. All hail Juan Carlos Ochoa, whose website is http://www.juanochoa.co/ - go take a look at all of his amazing work.
