Preparing a Phosphorello is tricky. One must carefully freeze the unstable isotope into cubes in an oxygen-free environment.

However, once the properly frozen cubes are added to alcohol, the drink actually mixes itself due to turbulence generated by the temperature gradient between frozen isotope and liquid.

It's important to pause and enjoy the show: not just for aesthetic reasons, but because the time it takes to melt is several times longer than its half-life, allowing the initial radiation to decay down to levels safe for human consumption.

This one is fuschia, and it tastes like sour raspberry and alpha particles.
