Tipsy Without the Taste: Pack a Punch with the Long Island Iced Tea

Welcome to our cocktail of the month. Whether you're a seasoned bartender or just a seasoned drinker, I wanted to introduce you to my favorite cocktail recipes that are easy to make with a mouthwatering taste.

Meet the Drink

The Long Island Iced Tea is refreshing and invigorating. The mix of citrus flavors and a splash of cola give it that iced tea look and taste, while the combination of spirits ensures it packs a punch. It’s light, tangy, and just the right amount of sweet – ideal for sipping around the campfire or cooling off after some fun outdoor games.

TRIVIA TIME: Did you know the man credited with the creation of the Long Island Iced Tea had the last name 'Butt'. Robert "Rosebud" Butt claims to have invented the Long Island iced tea as an entry in a contest. At least he didn't become a teacher because I guarantee kids wouldn't be able to control themselves with Mr. Butt. I wouldn't either tbh.
