롱 아일랜드 아이스드 티는 보드카, 데킬라, 라이트 럼, 진을 각각 동일한 비율로 콜라 한 방울과 레몬 트위스트와 함께 결합하여 속임수 같은 차 같은 모습 뒤에 상당한 알코올 함량을 숨긴 IBA 컨템포러리 클래식입니다. 이름과 달리 실제 차는 들어있지 않으며, 콜라가 특유의 갈색 색상과 약간의 달콤함을 제공합니다. 세계에서 가장 유명한 칵테일 중 하나입니다.

History & Origins

The Long Island Iced Tea was created in the 1970s, with competing claims from Robert Butt of Oak Beach Inn in Hampton Bays, New York, and a variation tracing to Kingsport, Tennessee. The IBA recognized it as a Contemporary Classic, cementing its status as a legitimate cocktail. Its popularity exploded in American bar culture throughout the 1980s and 1990s.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Subtle citrus and faint vanilla sweetness from the cola, with understated spirit notes. Palate: Deceptively smooth with layers of vodka, rum, gin, and tequila integrated by sour mix and cola sweetness. Finish: Warming and spirituous with a lingering lemon and cola tail.

Pro Tip

Use only a dash of cola for color — too much overwhelms the balanced spirit profile that defines this IBA classic.
