Long Island Iced Tea Recipe
Long Island Iced Tea Recipe is a strong cocktail made with multiple spirits, lemon juice, simple syrup, and cola, known for its strong yet smooth, refreshing taste. I made this Long Island Iced Tea Recipe because I enjoy bold drinks and recreating famous bar classics at home. I have old experience making Long Island Iced Tea for friends during small gatherings. I was watching bartenders prepare this drink in bars and videos, which inspired me.
