Okay, first the drinks.
Easiest is to mix something yellow with something blue. Orange juice
and Mountain Dew are good for the yellow, Great Bluedini kool-aid is good
for the blue. You’ll end up with a radioactive shade of green. If you’re
using a punch bowl, try this: Get some of those latex gloves, fill them
with water or juice, freeze. Unmold carefully and float the disembodied
hands in the punch bowl. Dry ice and back lighting is good for effect too
