Long Island Iced Tea

This classic drink is among the top 5 most popular cocktails and is the basis for many other mixed drinks. It does not actually contain tea, but it does taste slightly like it. Because so many variations exist, I can't post the exact alcohol percentage. Play around with this recipe to perfect it for your own taste.

You will need (measurements in parts for easy personal adjustment):
1 part vodka
1 part (good!!) tequila
1 part rum
1 part gin
1 part triple sec
1½ part sweet and sour mix
Enough Coca Cola to fill the glass and give colour.
Ice
Collins glass (or large high-ball glass)

Instructions:
Pour all ingredients into a shaker and shake very briefly (once or twice). Pour back into the glass and make sure it is bubbling at the top.

Enjoy!
