Introduction
The Long Island Iced Tea is a famous cocktail that originated in the 1970s. Despite its name, it doesn’t contain tea but has a color and taste reminiscent of iced tea. It’s known for its potent mix of five different spirits—vodka, tequila, light rum, triple sec, and gin—combined with lemon juice, simple syrup, and a splash of cola. The drink is typically garnished with a lemon wedge and served over ice. Its refreshing yet strong flavor makes it a popular choice for cocktail enthusiasts.
