Long Island Iced Tea

We really hemmed and hawed about including this drink in the app. On the one hand, this drink is awful. It’s just a ton of different near-flavorless boozes mixed up and downed almost purely for drunkenness’ sake. On the other hand… well, we’ll let the master, Gary Regan say it (from his seminal tome, The Joy of Mixology): “This is not a well-thought drink, and the notion of mixing all these spirits together is horrifying. Nevertheless, it’s undeniable that the Long Island Iced Tea works. It’s pleasant, refreshing, and somewhat lethal.”

Shake everything but the cola with ice and strain into a tall glass filled with ice. Top with just enough cola to make it look like tea, and garnish with a lemon wedge.
