Apart from St. Patrick's Day, Halloween is the only time of year you can sip on a fluorescent green drink without remorse. Green jello gives these creepy drinks their incandescent hue, and when combined with carbonated soda, the jello appears to be moving around the beaker. Use purple and/or orange jello in addition to green for an array of spooky cocktails.
