When I was in my early 20's, me and my buddies decided we wanted to do a "Long Island Night". We didn't want to keep mixing them over and over, though, so instead we poured one bottle of each type of alcohol and two 2-liters of Coke into one of those Gatorade coolers with the spigot, dumped in a bag of ice and stirred it. None of us remember much after that.

Arrive at hotel, bottle of Champagne, then I started drinking. Not sure how many Cesar's before wife found me a mile or so down the beach laying on hammock. Next morning, missed orientation, was sporting the gerbil platter for most of the day. Found some older bartender lady that fixed me up with bitters n' soda. Rest of the trip I took it easy. Love your vids BTW. Slow-mo camera work on the pours and stirring is captivating. Best of mate!

When I forget the ingredients in a Long Island Ice Tea, I think if this show. If you can remember the phrase "Tell Greg To Limit Verbose Rants Sometimes" then you know what's in a Long Island. Tequila, Gin, Tripple Sec, Lemon juice, Vodka, Rum, Simple Syrup. Add a splash of coke and you're done.

Another easy way to remember it is that The Clears(Your liquors used are all clear, duh) are what make the base of your "tea", and you change it up by altering what you put in for your mixers. For example, a Raspberry Tea replaces the Triple Sec with Chambord and the Coke with 7-Up, a Melona Ice Cream Tea swaps for Midori and cream, and so on and so forth.

I just made a pair of these, one for myself and one for the missus, with one difference: I didn't have any lemon left, so I used lime juice. It seemed to add a little spiciness and freshness to the taste, but worked beautifully. Of course, I also made a double batch, from lower-shelf boozes that I had on hand, so it probably wasn't quite as tasty as the one you had. I did substitute Italian orangio for the Triple Sec, and it added a pleasing, almost herbal note to it for some reason. But the truth is in the title: This is one dangerous drink. Even halved like this, it's still a double-shot of high-proof spirits, and it just doesn't taste like it was made of five boozes, or any booze at all. Tasty and easy sippin', when you really just want that one drink to round out your entire evening, or want to get buzzed quite rapidly.

My college economics professor brought one of these to class with him every day of the semester, and finished it before the bell each time. He also used beer to explain, in a thick Iranian accent, supply and demand curves: Over here you have the cheap beer, the Coors. And over here you have the good beer, the Heineken. If the overall price goes up, most people will buy the Coors. But some people will say, "I don't like the Coors, I want the Heineken, if the price goes up _I don't give a damn!"_ Needless to say with his examples, enthusiasm, and love for Long Islands and bacon (he would share the bacon with those who gave correct answers), nearly everyone in that class received an A.

I always preferred to float the alcohol on the cola for a Long Island. Daft really though, as it's a little more difficult and most customers don't really care. Also. I recently ran out of ice and threw a few highball glasses in the freezer with a little water in the bottom. This led me to a cool discovery. The ice freezes to the bottom of the glass. When you put a drink in there, after a little while the ice detaches from the glass and rises to the top. I havn't done anything with it yet, but definitely gonna make a black cocktail for this and call it a Moonrise. 😁🌜

Keep in mind that there's a big difference between 2oz of something like 50 proof amaretto, and a 110 proof tequila. Considering that a lot of bars take the reputation of the LIT as a mind-eraser and decide to make it with overproof alcohols like Bacardi 151, it's a very fair assessment that the smooth and easy-to-drink Long Island will wreck your face faster than sitting around sipping 2oz glasses of scotch. Add to the fact that people can't usually "taste the alcohol" in this and don't quite know how they're made, inexperienced drinkers can go from zero to "vomiting in a dirty bathroom stall" surprisingly quickly, because they don't realize that this is a strong drink.

not sure if I like that recipe version too much what I always found the most brilliant thing about a properly done Long Island Iced Tea, was that, properly done, it actually tastes more like an actual lemon iced tea rather than something with alcohol, even given the amount it is actually a cocktail I often use to test the quality of bar personnel. the recipe that I found get the iced tea-part across best would be 1,5cl Vodka 2cl Gin 2cl Rum 2cl Triple Sec 1,5cl Tequila 2cl Lime Juice 2cl Lemon Juice 1cl Simple Syrup /topped off with the kind of Pepsi Cola produced for the central European market (which is less sweet than the American or African standard)
