Although [Jell-O](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-jelly-collection) shots are nothing new, this recipe takes the classic party shooters up a notch by adding an extra-special touch. To make the glow-in-the-dark Jello-O shots, all that's required is colorful Jell-O mix, tonic water and vodka. To mix the alcoholic filling, simply combine all of the ingredients according to the instructions listed on the package. To create the illusion that the shooters are glowing, it is necessary to use a black light. The light illuminates the neon-colored Jello-O, which makes the shots glow-in-the-dark. The fun and easy recipe is perfect for a Halloween party held at night. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 69% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Glow-in-the-dark Beverages:** Opportunity for bars and nightclubs to add a new level of experiential entertainment to their offerings with black light cocktails. - **DIY Party Shots:** Opportunity for party supply retailers to market DIY kits for making creative and unique shots for different occasions and seasons. - **Neon Food and Drinks:** Opportunity for food and beverage industry to experiment with neon and UV reactive ingredients for added visual appeal. ### Who This Affects Most - **Alcohol:** Opportunity for alcoholic beverage producers to create innovative products that incorporate fluorescent ingredients to make drinking experiences more exciting and engaging. - **Bar and Nightclub:** Opportunity for bars and nightclubs to differentiate from the competition by offering themed happy hours and events featuring drinks that glow under UV lights. - **Party Supply Retailers:** Opportunity for party supply retailers to provide unique and fun DIY kits featuring black light activated ingredients to bring new life and energy to their product lines. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eerie Glowing Juice Pouches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghoul-aid.md) - [Dirty Martini Jelly Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-jellies.md) - [Halloween-Themed Alcohol Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloweenthemed-alcohol-bottles-bacardis-limited-edition-bottle-will-light-.md) - [Cinnamon Whiskey Jello Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-whiskey-geltain-shot.md) - [Festive Jelly Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-cosmo-cocktail-jelly-cake.md) - [Glow-in-the-Dark Energy Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/5hour-energy-glow-motion.md) - [Glow-in-the-Dark Sushi Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glow-in-the-dark-sushi-bar.md) - [Unconventional RTD Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unconventional-rtd-cocktails.md) - [Glow-in-the-Dark Rum Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limited-edition-skeleton-bottle.md)
