Glowing Drinks 
Although you really can't make drinks glow in the dark with out poisoning your guests, you can make drinks that glow under a black light.

The quinine in tonic water will glow under a black light, creating a cool effect for a party. Simple drinks like Vodka or Gin & Tonics can add a nice glow to the party.

Creating a fog effect for your Halloween Punch 
Use Dry Ice to scare up your punch. To create a spooky fog around your punch use 2 punch bowls. Once to hold the punch, one to hold the smaller bowl and the dry ice. With tongs or gloved hands, place chunks of dry ice in the bigger container. Plce the smaller bowl on top of the dry ice. There is no need to add extra ice as the dry ice will cool the punch nicely. Just before serving, pour some hot water over the dry ice. Continue to add hot water and dry ice as needed.

Be very careful when using dry ice! Handle only with tongs or heavy gloves! Do NOT put the dry ice directly in the punch or touch it with bare skin, it can burn and should NOT be ingested.
