Long Island Iced Tea cocktail garnished with a lemon slice

Long Island Iced Tea

The Long Island Iced Tea is an iconic cocktail that, despite its name, contains no tea. Instead, the unique combination of liquors and cola gives it an iced tea-like color. The drink originated in the 1970s and has since become a favorite among those who enjoy stronger cocktails. The lemon juice and simple syrup soften the flavors, while the cola provides a refreshing and balanced finish to the drink.
