is it possible to make an emulsion with water ethanol and an emulsifier
passage · full text (534 characters)
Sometimes the inner phase itself can act as an emulsifier, and the result is a nanoemulsion, where the inner state disperses into ``nano-size'' droplets within the outer phase. A well-known example of this phenomenon, the ``Ouzo effect'', happens when water is poured into a strong alcoholic anise-based beverage, such as ouzo, pastis, absinthe, arak, or raki. The anisolic compounds, which are soluble in ethanol, then form nano-size droplets and emulsify within the water. The resulting color of the drink is opaque and milky white.
