Long Island Tea
Long Island Iced Tea, LIIT
Ingredientes
Instruções
Combine all ingredients (except cola) and pour over ice in a highball glass. Add the splash of cola for color. Decorate with a slice of lemon and serve.
Long Island Tea é uma variação do Long Island Iced Tea que substitui o sour mix por suco de limão fresco e usa um toque de cola para a cor, produzindo uma bebida ligeiramente mais ácida e menos doce. A combinação de vodca, rum, gim e tequila fornece uma resistência substancial enquanto o cítrico ilumina o perfil geral. É um básico de festa melhor servido frio sobre gelo.
History & Origins
Long Island Tea is closely related to the Long Island Iced Tea, sharing the same multi-spirit philosophy that emerged in American bars in the 1970s. Origin is disputed between competing claims in New York and Tennessee. The use of actual lemon juice rather than sour mix represents a bartender's preference for a fresher, more citrus-forward interpretation.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Bright lemon juice with light spirit notes and a hint of cola sweetness. Palate: Tart and multidimensional with the interplay of four spirits balanced by fresh citrus acidity. Finish: Sour-sweet with a warming alcoholic tail and hints of cola.
Pro Tip
Squeeze fresh lemon juice immediately before mixing to preserve the bright citrus acidity that distinguishes this version from sour mix variations.
