Ethanol is a very common recrystallization solvent. This is sitting on my desk right now, and I wouldn't be surprised if half of the recrystallization procedures in it call for ethanol. More relevantly, it also is non-toxic, which is useful if you're using it to purify something that's going to be consumed.
I'd posit that you could find a better recrystallization solvent if you tried hard enough, but it probably wouldn't be much better, and it'd probably be toxic.
pdf download for that book, if anyone is interested. It comes in handy on occasion.
