Long Island iced tea is like black tea in color, sweet and sour in taste and confusing in name. It feels harmless to people and animals. If a cup falls, the young man may be unconscious.

Also known as "debauchery" and "gulp down", girls who don't know cocktails are easily confused by the name of Long Island iced tea. It looks like a drink, but the alcohol content is as high as 40%, and they may be drunk as soon as they drink it.

Origin:

The first one is more dramatic: it is said that during the prohibition in the United States in the 1920s, bartenders mixed hard liquor and cola into a cup of tea-like drink to avoid police inspection.

The second one sounds more real: 1972, Bob Bart, a bartender from Oak Beach Pub in Long Island, new york, took part in a cocktail blending competition. The rule of the competition is to use orange peel wine, and Bob pours the spirits he can get into the mixing tank.

Then add cola, and inadvertently create this new variety of cocktails. The bar was named "Long Island Iced Tea" because of the local name Long Island and the reason why it looks like tea.

It is a constellation cocktail representing Aquarius (65438+1October 2 1 to February 19) and one of the official cocktails of IBA. Miriam Yeung's "It's a pity that I am Aquarius" made more people begin to understand and be familiar with this cocktail.
