The Long Island Iced Tea scarred me for life. It was my first go-to cocktail when I was young and dumb. Now I’m just dumb. Anyway, I don’t have a love/hate relationship with LIIT, just a good ol’ hate/hate relationship. Haha. I am tempted to try the clarified version though. 🥴

I very much appreciate the cocktail content and I know that is the focus of this channel. I would love an episode here and there about your favorite liquors to sip neat or on the rocks - particularly if you have any suggestions that are not as well known. For example, I got a great suggestion from my favorite local liquor store employee to try Kirk & Sweeney 12 Year Old Rum neat or on the rocks and WOW!

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I feel you! Thanks for sharing your ideas. I need them. At some point, finding new cocktails to make may be tricky. So different types of related content is a great idea. Cheers

[@lxxwj]

if you like kirk & sweeny, maybe try el dorado 15 or real mccoy 12. i think either of those would work in a similar role as something aged and on the sweeter side

[@reed7325]

I just discovered this video, I never thought about using Cola for the acid base for a milk punch clarification. It’s a great idea.

[@MrToadbait]

I know liits are typically made with white liquors but I'm a rebel and I use .5oz of: mid shelf gold rum (like mount gay), reposado tequila (like espolon reposado) gin (like tanqueray) and vodka (like ketel one), .5oz of grand Marnier, add 1oz diy sour mix (simple syrup+lemon juice+lime juice), and splash of coke over ice in highball. Honestly I love long island iced teas and order them from different places all the time, mostly restaurants as I'm not a bar guy, and I have to say I've never seen them made the same way twice. Everyone changes it up and the only version I've never really had was one with standard ingredients (4 white liquors+triple sec+sour mix+cola)

[@MrMoney331]

Haha. you just look upset making the Regular Long Island and you aren't even in a Bar Setting! Haha

[@JohanBernhardsson]

Tip. Carbonate in a 1.5 litre cola bottle with the help of an adapter that's used to carbonate beer. Either the right pressure to start with and leave for 24 hours or over pressure and roll and twist it (not to much tho you don't want it to explode) to do it more quickly. This is the process we force carbonate beer after brewing to be able to skip the bottle fermentation part for carbonation

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I’ll screenshot that 😉

[@Yallabar]

I saw only the thumbnail and I already know that I will love it.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thanks 🙏

[@TadRichard]

"The Coca Cola is only there to add color and sugar. There's no fizz." So leave out the Coca Cola, and use Sprite -- or better, collins mix -- instead of lemon juice. Bingo. Clarified LIIT in minutes, with no wasted milk.

[@notgoodatgames6804]

I mean there are different versions of the lIIT with different sodas, so yeah they definitely exist

[@joshayala9022]

The Old Man bar in Hong Kong does something similar for their “To have and have not” cocktail- burnt oat rum, “rectified cola” and vanilla “lather”

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Sounds pretty nice!

[@deathpunch1992]

I use half an ounce in all my LITs to keep the spirit at 2 ounces because well you don't want 3 ounces in a drink at a bar. But also it's a little more balanced as well. 3/4 of an ounce feels much for me as well

[@Chuckge]

J’adore que tu trouves la recette originale vraiment longue à faire et que tu fais ta propre version sur 2 jours 😂👌🏿 très bon vidéo encore une fois !

I love these experiments. Coming up with ways to clarify something is so much fun and the results....

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

It’s an addicting 😜

[@tompoxkosi]

J'adore cette idée ! Je pense que pour le coup je préparerais sûrement une réduction de cola pour l'ajouter à la préparation clarifiée, et même pas d'eau pour diluer, et qu'au service je topperais juste avec de l'eau pétillante directement, ça pourrait être pas mal aussi

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Yep! Ça pourrait aussi très bien fonctionner. On aurait pas le look clarifié par contre. Mais au goût ce serait intéressant je suis certain.

[@johnmanfred8130]

i usually have a pre batched bottle with the spirits as a blend and just add sugar, lemon and coca cola

[@user-dm1tv6nl2e]

It makes sense that the milk is curdling, coke is serving as an acidifier the same as it would for making cottage cheese, cream cheese, or ricotta.

[@loop8946]

I actually love long island ice teas, though I don't order them when bartenders are busy, most often I like making them at home because I have discovered that changing even one brand of one ingredient such as rum or tequila can really change the outcome of the drink. Now if you are getting the cheap stuff in it then yea definitely get a different drink because there isn't anything redeeming about a cheap long island.

[@Gibbong100]

AWESOME BRO! A (stupid) question why do you use 8oz of coke and 1.5oz of sugar? (Instead of 6oz n 2oz) technically with this recipe 4 drinks should come out right? Thx in advance!

[@DielanByah]

Love your channel so much. most underrated cocktail channel on youtube by far

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thank you 🙏

[@tosanmedia2800]

You can also make this in soda bottle,in my case I use isi soda bottle for "ready" fizzy cocktails

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Good idea

[@nickreynolds7935]

I think you could simply clarify your LIT base and then dilute with a bit of heavily charged soda water to get a comparable end product. No need to mess with the sugar content just to charge the whole cocktail with the soda stream. Definitely will test this soon!

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I was making that test in order to be able to bottle the drink as a ready to drink option for the bar I work at. Your idea could do it but not for that scenario. I need to improve the concept ;)

[@nickreynolds7935]

@Truffles On The Rocks I must have missed the part about bottling it. I really love the idea and tentatively have it on menu that I am working on. I'd love to know what your final method is when you arrive at it! Cheers!

[@SoaringxDragon]

I can understand. When I was bartending I always hated LITs because the common complaint I always got was that the customer (person who’s trying to get fucked up) couldn’t taste the liquor. I used to top it off with an extra shot when I first started getting those “complaints” until I just started taking a straw and started pouring some liquor down it so when they get the drink back and take a sip it’s nothing but alcohol. They don’t complain again after that.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I heard that many times. Old Club trick ;)

[@TheMugiwara29]

once I heard about that order of a long island during a rush, I knew we shared a mutual pain and you deserved the like

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

HAHAHA!! Cheers!

[@bhatiamayank007]

Maybe an idea, instead of dialuting and recarbonating, you could refrigerate the mixture and add seltzer to make it fizzy, I like to add extra co2 to ice cold water to make it extra fizzy so that could do the trick!

[@bhatiamayank007]

Awesome video though and really cool concept!

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thanks! YEah the initial idea was to carbonate the whole drink to make it extra "lively" instead of adding only 2 oz of sparkling in a 7 oz cocktail. But yes if you don't have a soda machine that can take sweet liquids, that's a good idea. P.S. there are some new brands of soda machines that works really well with sweet liquids. I have to get one of these.

[@Cocktailsmixology]

This was such a cool experiment!

[@rory7248]

Very cool.. since its a pain to make when you're busy. would you consider making a large batch? (eg a bottle of each ingredient). shouldn't have a problem with shelf life, and when someone asks for it, simple just pouring it.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Milk washed cocktails have an almost forever shelf life so yes it is totally an option.

[@sarkastico]

Cool ideas dude! I like the fact that you are not afraid to show that you make some mistakes because that always happens......

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

99% of the time I make test before shooting but when I don't ... this is the kind of things that can happen and as you say... it's part of the process. Cheers!

[@lttrbox]

Awesome idea! Great vid. Will definitely try! Is there a reason why you're using a Sodastream instead of an iSi whipper/siphon? I have a siphon, which does not experience problems with carbonating diluted syrups, so I guess I should be alright then? And thanks again man! You keep making stuff that I end up making, and so far it's always worked (cold brew liqueur and Dutch crème de cacao).

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thanks 🙏 I really appreciate the feedback! So glad you enjoy the DIY recipes 😃 The ISI is a great idea. It might work much better! Thanks

[@bob___]

Just caught the episode. I don't usually drink Long Island Ice Teas, but I've found that, when I make it, I like to skip the tequila and use tequila-based Patron Citronge for both the tequila and the orange liqueur. Also, I agree that lime is better than lemon in this drink. I generally prefer lime to lemon in drinks made with white spirits, because lime is more refreshing as far as I'm concerned. Also, it's hard for me to get lemons that are not very sour.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Did you know that Patron Citronge has been discontinued? You will have to find a replacement ;)

[@stephane.foisy.186]

I prefer a daiquiris or a Margarita or a gin daisy 😉 sound like a fun experiment.

[@MultiHydrogenPeroxid]

If you buy a different model of the sodastream machine you can manualy control how much gas you put in with each press, so you can carbonate it slowly without it leaking out

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I have a friend who just bought a new brand of soda maker that can carbonate sweet liquids. I have to get one

[@MultiHydrogenPeroxid]

@@TrufflesOnTheRocks That's a nice idea, it would depend for me on the price a lot, when i know i can do it with old sodastream.

[@DrinkInDigital]

[@ramyap.2874]

You can also make it clear by swapping the coke out for any clear drink ;)

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

You could if all you want is to change the colour of the drink but the idea of milk clarification is not for the colour. The clarity of the drink is a side effect but the main idea here is to change the molecule structure of the drink by filtering it through milk. A lot of flavour compunds are changed and that's what is mostly interesting about this process.

[@soren633]

I would propose, instead of carbonating it after the fact and adding plain water to dilute, why not adding 2 ounces of carbonated water after the fact to add the fizziness?

[@DC-tm1pt]

Love it, but as a challenge can it be clarified with anything else a side from using milk? Milk is heavy on lactose.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

If lactose is a concern for you, I always use lactose free milk because Sefra is lactose intolerant. That said, you can also clarify with plant based milk or coconut milk if it’s fat enough. I didn’t master the oat milk clarification yet but I had some decent results in the past. I was actually thinking about making a side by side comparison in a video. You just convinced me to do it.
