If you’re looking to make the BEST LONG ISLAND ICED TEA, look no further. I’ve had a hell of a time finding a good Long Island Iced Tea recipe. It seems all LIT recipes are too sour-mixey, too giny, or something else is terrible wrong with them. Here is my solution – after 8 years of trying to make them (always badly) I’ve come up with my own recipe which I think is great. So here is my version…what I consider to be the best long island iced tea recipe out there! (little tip here, if you want to get REALLY fancy, put a small splash of peach schnapps on top and make it a peach long island! – You may opt to reduce the amount of triple sec if you do this to keep the drink from getting too sweet.)

Ingredients
- 1oz Vodka
- 1oz White Rum
- 1oz triplesec
- 1 oz sour mix
- .75 oz tequila
- .5 oz gin
Instructions
Shake all ingredients on ice. Pour into glass filled with crushed ice, and top of with diet coke -I’m guessing it’s about 1.5 oz coke. (or regular coke – I’m not sure how it will change the flavor) Mix it with a spoon or straw and enjoy! (Most people don’t shake this drink….I like shaking most drinks though.)
