I have tried The Long Island Ice Tea out in many restaurants and bars, but this time I wanted to try to make it myself. I am not exactly a bartender so I was kind of nervous about how the cocktail was going to taste. It turned out to be very good and I enjoyed it a lot. I figured I might be biased because I made it so I asked my cousin to try it and she loved it. The Long Island Ice Tea is very strong. It is not like most cocktails where it is equal parts liquor and juice, this cocktail is majority alcohol. Be careful when drinking this cocktail and pace yourself, but it is worth it because you are guaranteed to find something about The Long Island Ice Tea that you will love.
