My first submission! This is a technique I roughed out for making raves ravier, drink-mixing more fun, and glow glowier.
Anyway; this is kind of in the rough. I'm hoping to submit an annotated one eventually.
Questions, comments, tips?
POST 'EM.

Eek, it's so small. :( Sorry, guys.
Also; how do I edit the comments for the submission?
For now, here are the ingredients:
1 glowstick (I use DREAM GLOW brand)
1 cutting utensil (I find slicing a small slit vertically works best, then wedging a blade and prying the plastic)
1 plastic bag
2 containers
CHEMICAL INFORMATION:
The chemicals used, excluding the dye (it varies from color and brand), are
PHENYL OXALATE and HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
PLEASe, though, for the love of God: they are premeasured inside the plastic and ampoule. DO NOT grab Hydro-Pero from your bathroom closet and start mixing. Also, some people are allergic to Phenyl Oxalate; keep everything away from your eyes.

I know, right? Simple. *cough* Anyway, being the great magician that I am, this is more of a way to extract the premeasured chemicals while keeping them separate from each other. Makes a great party trick to combine 'water' that bursts into light.
It doesn't sound very impressive, but the most I've seen other people do is break a glowstick open and strain it. Not very showmanshippy.

The brands I buy say 'non-toxic' right on the cover. Good old America! =D
But, yeah, to be clear- by 'drink mixing' I was referring to my favorite method of surprising roommates at conventions, when the booze-bar is all set up and people are showing off their mixing skills and I make LIQUID MAGIXORZ OMG!!!
I've never tried it, and I don't recommend trying it, but there are many people on Youtube who have cut open broken glowsticks, strained the juice, and had it as shots. It's good for giggles, but the stuff burns even /outside/ skin. :s
