The Radioactive Long Island Iced Tea is a vibrant twist on the classic Long Island Iced Tea, known for its bright green color and strong, energetic flavor. It typically features the same base ingredients as the traditional Long Island Iced Tea—vodka, rum, gin, tequila, triple sec, and sour mix—but with the addition of a splash of melon liqueur (like Midori) or a similar green-colored liqueur. This addition gives the drink its "radioactive" glow, making it visually striking. The drink is often topped with a splash of lemon-lime soda or club soda, and served over ice in a tall glass, garnished with a lime wedge or a cherry. The Radioactive Long Island Iced Tea delivers a strong, refreshing punch with a sweet, citrusy finish.
Pour all ingredients over ice in a very tall glass. Sip cautiously.
