🧪 Directions:
-
Mix the Base:
In a shaker or mixing cup, combine tonic water, lemon vodka, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Stir gently to avoid losing carbonation. Add edible glitter for a shimmering ghostly effect. -
Rim the Glasses (Optional):
Dip shot glass rims in lemon juice and coat with silver sanding sugar for a glistening edge. -
Pour and Chill:
Fill each shot glass about 3/4 full with the glowing mixture. Serve immediately while cold. -
Turn on the Black Light:
The tonic water will glow with an eerie bluish hue under UV light — perfect for haunted house parties or glow-in-the-dark themes.
