What ingredients are used to make a long island iced tea?

Fill a shaker with ice. Pour the vodka, gin, rum, tequila, Triple Sec and lemon juice into the shaker. Cover and shake vigorously to combine and cool. Pour the mixture, with ice and everything, into 2 glasses or mugs of beer and cover with the cola.

Long Island iced tea is usually served in a Collins glass or in a Hurricane glass on a large amount of fresh ice with a splash of cola on top, which creates that tea-like color. Long Island iced tea is the equivalent in a display case of alcoholic beverages to what children once called a suicidal soda (a splash of every drink from the soda fountain in a huge cup full of ice).
