Step 1: Materials

For this you'll need
1 1 liter sprite bottle ( it has to be sprite)
Water
1/4 cup of tide detergeant
2 UV type A leds
a nine volt
and a 550Ohm resistor

Step 2: The Cap

Take the cap off the bottle and drill 2 holes the size of your leds and use super glue to glue them in place. Then solder the two leds in series and add the resistor.

Step 3: The Liquid

Add 1/4 of tide detergeant to the Bottle then fill the rest with tap water. Let the foam die down.

Step 4: Make It Work

screw the cap back on and use the nine volt to power the LEDS.

Step 5: Whats So Special?

Well sprite bottles are green and the bleach glows blue which creates a nice gradient of color between the too since the water is murky the light dies down.
