Holy shit

don't tell me, your 1st


yeah tastes like sweet tea( and Coke is the secret ingredient)
It rocks your ass after a few, too

i haven't had one of these in awhile.

I've never had one.

I remember the night that I lost count after having 10...well, maybe "remember" is the wrong word.

Had a couple in Atlantic City last year at my buddy's bachelor party. Totally screwed me up and as one of two guys who had organized it, the plan was I would drink responsibly and make sure everybody got home safely. That went out the window.

i LOVE them!

however, the last time i had one (okay, a couple)....
i was travelling with a friend and we were staying in a hotel.
she woke up at 330am to the sound of our hotel door closing.
she looked over at my bed....and i was gone. she comes running out
after me to find me out in the hotel lobby.

who knows where i was going. what i was doing.

i don't even remember this.

apparently i told her that i was going to look for her.

yikes.

I made the mistake of drinking a huge goblet of it on an empty stomach (10 hours with no food). Basically, I have no idea how I got home last night.

Back in the mid-80's I used to DJ at this shitty bar in Pittsburg, KS where the bartender made the best friggin' Long Island Iced Teas I've ever had ( to this day ) . I'd be as loaded as the patrons by the end of the nite.

That was a pretty sweet gig in a lot of ways - free booze, got paid in cash under the table...

The best ones are at the Airport Cocktail Lounge, upstairs at the airport in Monroe, Louisiana.

Serve them fuckers in fishbowls, and there's enough weirdness in that place to keep Ralph Steadman sketching for days.

And they have a self-serve popcorn machine.

I've never been or had one, but I've heard this from lots of different folk.

Long Island Ice Tea was my first regular drink when I was 18. Pretty much the only thing I ever got. Got too drunk on it too many times, and it's too much sugar. Alcohol + sugar = sick the next day.

It also has a padded door, like fucking Pee-Wee's Playhouse, except it's brown/maroon and rectangular.

My best friend, Maria, and I were roomies and used to throw huge parties in our flat. We always made a huge batch of Long Island Iced Teas and served 'em from those big 5 gallon water dispensers. Total batch would be about 7 gallons -- 2 for the bottom dispenser and 5 for the bottle. By midnight, everyone would be pretty much trashed.

That's you the 3rd from right, isn't it?

sounds like my bingo gig, except I drink Vitamin V,

The right way to make one is without soda -- no sugar, no hangover, extra alcohol, buzz all night.

Does a Long Beach Iced Tea use OJ instead of soda?

Jon, I think it's cranberry juice vs soda.

Long Island iced tea is responsible for my second-worst drunk ever. I was sucking them down like lemonade at the Coyote Lounge, not quite realizing just how potent they were. Next thing I remember, I was puking into the second sink in a hotel room bathroom two miles from the Lounge, with no idea how exactly I'd arrived there, or who's room it was. The first sink was full of Bud lights and ice, so I was fairly sure I was in friendly territory. Turned out I'd run into some friends from out of town and we had wandered back to their place after the Coyote kicked us out. I have no recollection of the rest of the evening.

Anyone have a good recipe?

Long Island Iced Tea

1 part vodka
1 part tequila
1 part rum
1 part gin
1 part triple sec
1 1/2 parts sweet and sour mix
1 splash Coca-Cola®

Mix ingredients together over ice in a glass. Pour into a shaker and give one brisk shake. Pour back into the glass and make sure there is a touch of fizz at the top. Garnish with lemon.

What's the worst drunk ever story?

mmm sounds good.

It involves a brutal breakup, Southern Comfort sucked through a cheap Burger Chef plastic straw, large amounts of furniture being broken, and me eventually waking up with one hand hanging in my mother's toilet.

Ahh, good times.

I remember when I was in the Bahamas for spring break and I got drunk and sick on tequila one night and the next day a bunch of friends were doing shots of sambuca on the beach and I couldn't even get one shot down without gagging. I think I threw up in a bush at one point and then fell asleep in the hotel lobby.
