#1 Glow in the Dark Food
The secret to glowing food is tonic water (diet tonic water works too). It contains quinine, and guess what happens when you expose quinine to black light?
fun, right?? So if you mix up a drink (like crystal light lemonade like I’ve done below) and add a little tonic water…
magical glowing beverages! (Have I ever mentioned that Kate hates the word “beverage?” Hey Kate, beverage beverage beverage!! She’s totally hiding under her computer desk right now.) Pretty much anything you can make that includes water can glow with tonic water. Like Jello for example:
My kids thought that glowing jello was pretty much the coolest thing ever.
Now tonic water does have a nasty bitter taste to it. My kids actually didn’t notice at all, which I thought was strange. Maybe I’m just super sensitive. I don’t like the flavor, so if you’re like me know that you only need a little to make it glow. Adding a bit to juice or punch isn’t very noticeable. And if you do jello, you can use part regular water (half and half, or even less tonic) to minimize the bitter taste. And if you were wondering, YES you can even use tonic water to make glowing gak!
Think of other creative uses and gather stuff on your kitchen table. Turn down the lights, flip on a black light, and watch your kids ooh and ahhh as they sip glow in the dark juice and chomp down radioactive jello.
