Hey! I'm Taryn. Welcome to our blog. I cant wait to sprinkle a little fun into your kitchen with you!
This Fancy Fizz is the kind of drink that would be served at the famous Hollywood Hotel inside Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Dark cherry, Mountain Dew, and lemon-lime soda, create a drink that’s just as eerie as the ride itself. It’s swirled with glitter and each sip is a bit mysterious and bit spooky.
How do I get the glitter swirl effect?
Add a small pinch of edible glitter or luster dust right before serving, then gently stir. The swirl forms as the bubbles move through the drink, creating that signature “hotel lobby shimmer.”
Can I prepare the drink ahead of time?
It’s best made right before serving so the carbonation and glitter effect stay fresh. If needed, you can pre-chill all the sodas and prep your glasses with rims and whipped topping in advance.
Can I use regular Mountain Dew instead of Baja Blast?
Yes! The flavor will be slightly different but still delicious. Baja Blast just gives it that signature spooky color.

What kind of edible glitter should I use?
Choose FDA-approved edible glitter or luster dust specifically labeled safe for consumption. Avoid craft glitter- it’s not food-safe.
How do I make glittery rims on the glasses?
Dip the rims in lemon-lime soda or simple syrup, then roll them in edible glitter or sanding sugar before pouring in the drink.
Can I make a kid-friendly or non-caffeinated version?
Absolutely! Use lemon-lime soda, black cherry sparkling water, and a splash of blue fruit punch instead of Mountain Dew.
Can I turn this into a cocktail?
Yes! Add a splash of cherry vodka or rum for an adult twist- just mix gently to keep the layers visible.
How do I keep the whipped topping from melting?
Add it at the very end, right before serving. For an extra touch, chill your glasses so the topping holds its shape longer.
Turn your kitchen into the Hollywood Tower Hotel lounge. Dim the lights, play vintage jazz, and serve these sparkling drinks in fancy glasses with glittery rims. Then settle in to watch vintage episodes or The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror for a perfectly eerie, old-Hollywood night.
