But rather than using an ultraviolet bulb to light up your trippy velvet posters or run your own 60 Minutes-style hotel room expose, you should turn the lamp on your cocktails for a glow-in-the-dark twist. Sure, you could whip up a gin and tonic under a blacklight and ooh and ahh over the iridescent hue ? a result of the fluorescent properties of the quinine in tonic water ? but that?s been done before.

Because simple syrup can be found in so many cocktails, creating an eerie party is a snap. Here are a few drink recipes to get you started.
