Notes

Make it less strong. This is the classic way to make a Long Island iced tea and it's definitely quite strong. If you want a drink that's not quite as strong, I suggest adding double or triple the amount of sweet and sour mix and Coca Cola.

Hawaiian Iced Tea - Add pineapple juice instead of coca-cola.

Long Beach Iced Tea - Replace the coca-cola with cranberry juice.

Miami Iced Tea - Swap the tequila for peach schnapps and use your favorite lemon lime soda in place of coca-cola.
