Long Island Iced Tea

highballvodkaginrumtequila

There is no tea in this. Everything but the Coke goes in at a half ounce, which is what keeps it a legitimate sour rather than a dare, and the lemon is doing more work than any of the spirits. Nobody has ever ordered one of these quietly.

Ingredients

Where there's a range: the low end is lighter, the high end is fuller.

  • ½ ozvodka
  • ½ ozgin
  • ½ ozsilver rum
  • ½ oztequila
  • ½ ozCointreau
  • ½ ozsimple syrup
  • ¾ ozlemon juice
  • 1–2 ozCoca-Cola — to top

Garnish

Lemon wedge

Method

Add all ingredients except the Coke to a shaker with ice, and shake for 6-8 seconds. Pour into a tall glass or pint glass, top with ice and the Coke, mix it all together with a straw, and garnish with a lemon wedge.
