Thirsty Thursday {Countdown to Halloween Day 22}

 These GLOWING cocktails are sure to turn up your Halloween party a notch or two!

 Gin and Sin 

This twist on a Gin Daisy looks coral in daylight—and glows white under a black light.

INGREDIENTS

3 oz. Gin

1/2 oz. lemon juice

1 tsp. grenadine

1 handful ice

tonic water

 

DIRECTIONS

Mix gin, lemon juice and grenadine in a cocktail shaker; pour into a large glass filled with ice.

Top with tonic water. Garnish with a glow stick (optional).

Ghoulish Glowing Jello Shots

To really make these shots glow, use only tonic water—not half tonic, half tap water—but fair warning: It'll make the shots a little bitter.

INGREDIENTS

2 c. tonic water, divided

2 packages Jell-O (two flavors; we used pineapple and orange)

1 c. water

1 c. vodka

 

DIRECTIONS

Make the first layer: Pour one cup tonic water into a pot over high heat. Once it comes to a boil, add the pineapple Jell-o mix. Whisk until the mix has dissolved, then pour in half a cup of water and half a cup of vodka. Stir to combine.

Pour the Jell-o into shot glasses, filling them about two-thirds of the way up. Place in the refrigerator to chill, 30 to 35 minutes.

Make the second layer: As they set, start making the orange Jell-o, following the same process used for the pineapple Jell-o.

Top each of the pineapple Jell-o shot glasses with the orange Jell-o mixture. Return the shots to the fridge to set, 2 to 3 hours.
