Iced Tea drink - with alcohol - but not a Long Island Iced Tea?

Question

I dont want to drink a long island, but am in the mood for iced tea...any suggestions - without having to do something like melt bitters or soak cherries - something I can make right now -...

Answer 1

Try Iced-tea w/pineapple juice

Answer 2

One of the first mix drinks ever is\was also the strongest.....a Mint Juilep: Several to a few dozen mint leaves 3 to 5 oz. (90 to 150 mL) of Kentucky bourbon 1 tsp. (5 mL) of granulated sugar 2 tsp. (10 mL) of spring water Shaved or crushed ice In a small bowl or glass muddle the mint, sugar, and water. Once the sugar is well dissolved, and the mixture has a good mint smell, stir in the bourbon. Pack a separate cup - preferably silver or pewter, but a highball will do - with crushed ice. Strain the bourbon mixture into the cup with the ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint, and serve with a drinking straw. Some tips for success: Strain well. Try to avoid getting any of the crushed mint in the final concoction. Use fresh mint. Four or five large spearmint leaves work well. Most other mints have smaller leaves, adjust accordingly. Instead of using sugar and water, use premixed sugar syrup. This helps avoid leaving grains of sugar in the drink. The mint, bourbon, and sugar can be pre-mixed in larger quantities, but always pour it over the ice immediately before serving.

Answer 3

You could try a tea spike.
1 1/2 oz white rum
1/2 oz dark creme de cacao
4 oz iced tea
PREPARATION:
Mix ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake well and serve in a high ball glass.

Answer 4

Try it with some vodka and lots of ice - refreshing.Try flavored ice teas.

Answer 5

I would suggest a flavored vodka or rum. Especially a lemon flavor.

Answer 6

long island isn't made with iced tea.....its vodka rum gin tequilla and triple sec, sour mix, and a splash of cola....weird, huh?


As far as tea goes, I would try it with whiskey and lemon....
