Rheology modifiers comprising cross-linked poly(amino acid) and methods of their use in aqueous compositions. The modifiers comprise cross-linked poly(amino acid) microparticles having a mean equivalent diameter when fully swollen in deionized water of up to 1000 m, as measured by laser diffraction. In particular, the poly(amino acid) is D-, L- or D,L-Y-poly(glutamic acid). A method of preparing the modifier comprises cross-linking a poly(amino acid), drying the cross-linked poly(amino acid) and grinding the cross-linked poly(amino acid) to have the required diameter.

An alcoholic beverage that includes a solution for aiding in the consumption of the alcoholic beverage that includes sucralose, sodium citrate, and a gelling agent, along with cannabidiol (CBD). The solution is adapted to reduce the feeling of alcohol burn within the mouth and throat of a person consuming the alcoholic beverage, and includes the health benefits of cannabidiol (CBD).
