The Original Long Island Iced Tea
Five premium spirits. One legendary glass. Born from rebellion, perfected for every occasion — no bartender required.
THE LEGEND
Born From Rebellion
Five spirits. One legendary glass. Few cocktails have earned their place in history the way the Long Island Iced Tea has. What started as a clever bartender’s dare — pack five spirits into a single glass without it tasting like a punch — became the defining drink of a generation.
“A bold mix of multiple spirits disguised as a simple iced tea — strong, refreshing, and unforgettable.”
Where It All Began
Legend traces the Long Island Iced Tea to the early 1970s, when a young bartender on Long Island, New York combined leftover spirits with cola and called it a tea. Within a decade, it had conquered every bar in America — and then the world.
In 1984, Montebello Brands brought this iconic cocktail to a wider audience with the launch of its Original Long Island Iced Tea Cocktail—a ready-to-enjoy version that stayed true to the drink’s bold character and smooth finish. What started as a fan favorite has grown into the largest-selling cocktail of its kind in the country, now enjoyed across 20 states.
The Blend
Five Spirits. One Harmony.
Each spirit earns its place. Together, they create something neither could achieve alone.
Vodka
Clean & neutral. The backbone that lets the others shine.
Rum
Subtle sweetness with warm, tropical depth.
Tequila
Earthy bite and agave character that defines the finish
Gin
Bright and botanical. Adds a fresh, aromatic lift.
Triple Sec
Sweet orange citrus that ties everything together.
SERVING GUIDE
The Perfect Pour

Fill a Tall Glass With Ice
Generous ice keeps the blend cold and slightly diluted — just as it should be.
Pour Over Ice
No shaking required. Let the blend settle naturally over fresh ice for the cleanest taste.
Garnish & Serve
A lemon wedge on the rim is all it takes. The drink does the rest.
Ready to Drink.
