لونغ آيلاند آيس تي
A Long Island Iced Tea is the ultimate happy-hour sleeper: five clear spirits — vodka, gin, rum, tequila and triple sec — shaken with fresh lemon and a little sugar, then topped with just enough cola to turn the glass the exact amber of brewed iced tea. There isn't a drop of actual tea in it; the cola and citrus mimic the color and bite while the shake-and-strain method melds the liquors into one smooth, deceptively easy-drinking highball.
