I was musing about something similar a week or two ago.  Perhaps a colorless,
stringy, almost slimy, viscoelastic polymer with the same IOR as soapy water

Bonus points if this material is non-toxic (preferably a food product), and only
metastable so that no trace of it remains after the bubble bursts.
