A Dangerously Good Classic Libation!

Originating in the pre-Prohibition 1920s as a multi-spirit concoction by Old Man Charlie Bishop in Tennessee, the Long Island Iced Tea morphed and grew in popularity until the 1970s, when Robert “Rosebud” Butt, a bartender from Long Island, NY, entered his Long Island variation into a Triple Sec cocktail competition at the Oak Beach Inn. Utilizing the multi-spirit approach coined by Old Man Chuck (rum, gin, tequila, vodka) with the additions of lemon juice, simple syrup, and the pièce de résistance, Triple Sec and Cola, Rosebud crafted a beverage that was delicious, so sweet, so tart, and most importantly, so dangerously good that the imbibing world never looked back. Though labeled as the “best, worst cocktail ever”, the Long Island can be found in most, if not all, college bars, dive bars, dorm rooms, fraternity house parties, and is even seeing a resurgence in craft cocktail bars around the globe.

TASTING NOTES: Deliciously Sweet & Tart With Notes Of Lemon, Orange, and Cola. A Leisuremann’s Long Island Iced Tea celebrates this dangerously good libation in true form. On first sip, you’ll be greeted with robustly tart and sweet lemon with a lasting orange finish. As the ice in your Long Island melts- which we highly recommend taking your time and savoring this drink, LOL!- you’ll get hints of cola as well as the subtle nuances of all 4 base spirits. Best served on the rocks in a Collins or pint-style glass. Mixes well with any and all spirits, but Rum, Gin, Vodka, and Tequila are traditionally used. Garnish with a lemon or orange wedge, sit back and enjoy! Mix as a Mocktail!! Try our Long Island Iced Tea mixer as a mocktail by adding your favorite zero-proof spirit, flavored water, or dare we say, a freshly brewed iced or not tea to the mix.

Fun Fact…Most people say it tastes like tea…not true. It’s really the color that resembles freshly brewed tea. #tmyk🌈⭐
