Long Island Iced Tea

This is a great drink to serve when you are entertaining outside.  It's a strong drink, but it is served over ice. People will sip on these and you won't have to keep making drinks for everyone, because they are pre-made in a pitcher.  I got the recipe on the Food Network.  This will make about 8 servings, so adjust accordingly.
 Ingredients:
  • ½ C. of vodka
  • ½ C. of gin
  • ½ C. of white tequila
  • ½ C. of white rum
  • ¼ C. of Triple Sec
  • ½ C. of freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 C. of Coke
Directions:
  1. Pour all the liquors and the lemon juice in a pitcher and mix well
  2. Pour the Coke into the pitcher
  3. Pour 2 C. of ice into the pitcher and stir
  4. Serve over a tall glass of ice
  5. Garnish with a lemon wedge
Tips and Tricks:
  • I use Cointreau in the place of the Triple Sec.
  • I use ½ Diet Coke and ½ Coke.
