The Kubla Khan's Herb is described on various pages of Grimalkin's Treasury of Great Recipes, almost exclusively in connection with ice-cream. When its little blue flowers are dried up, mixed with milk and shattered ice, it will prevent the substance from melting for days (the period ranging from 2 to 5, depending on circumstances, see below) - even in the direct sunlight.
This is very suitable not only for storing of the ice cream itself, but also for many recipes which involve such subtleties as frying of the ice - and such. BUT the adventurers might want to use it in an entirely different way...
The disadvantages of this herb are: the flowers only bloom for three days in a year, are exceedingly small, expensive and extremely hard to come by.

Magical Properties:

Each flower contains a small amount of magic...VERY small amount, that is - and that's why there has to be SOME amount of them before one can start thinking about anything - 100 dried flowers will keep a pound of ice intact.
