Tickled Pink Tropical Island "Iced Tea"

Sippity Sup's Tickled Pink Tropical Island

Description

This cocktail is pink and pretty and a complete riff on a Long Island Iced Tea. It is tropical because I used spiced rum. It is ticklish because I used club soda. And it is pink, very pink from guava nectar!

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz captain morgan’s spiced rum

How a bartender makes the varients

Long Island Ice Tea: You use Bar Mix, Sour Mix or at worst lemonade, not orange juice, this goes for all the varients.

New England Ice Tea = Long Beach Iced Tea

Punch Bowl

This is exactly what I'm looking for as my drink for this weekends party but I was hoping to do it by the pitcher do you have any suggestions for measurements.

I would

think if you kept the proportions fairly consistent you could multiply this as much as you like. GREG
