long island icetea
the trick to this is… it will NEVER taste like icetea or brisk. deal with it. the trick to making it is to have the flat bar coke that comes from the popgun. if you make it with bottled coke it wont taste as good due to all the carbonation. so if youre making it at home make sure you let the coke fizz out a bit
1oz ( 5 parts) - gin, vodka, silver tequila, rum, triple sec
bar mix and coke to fill
garnish with a lemon
never shake this cocktail as it has bar mix in it.
