Long Island Iced Tea
Long Island Iced Tea is a mixed cocktail combining equal parts of gin, tequila, triple sec, vodka, and white rum with lemon juice, simple syrup, and a splash of cola. The layered spirits create a strong yet balanced drink with citrus notes and a slight cola finish. It's typically served in a tall glass over ice.

Notes
- Use silver (blanco) tequila for the cocktail to keep a lighter taste.
- Triple sec can be substituted with Cointreau or Grand Marnier if preferred.
- Homemade simple syrup is made by dissolving equal parts sugar and water, cooled before use, and stores well refrigerated for 3-4 weeks.
- This recipe makes one cocktail typically served in a highball glass (8-12 ounces).
