A Long Island Iced Tea is a highball made with, among other ingredients, vodka, gin, tequila, and rum. A popular version mixes equal parts vodka, gin, tequila, rum and triple sec with 1 1/2 parts sour mix and a splash of cola. Close variants often replace the sour mix with sweet and sour mix or with lemon juice, the cola with actual iced tea, or add white creme de menthe. Some restaurants substitute brandy for the tequila.
The drink has a much higher alcohol concentration (~28%) than most highballs because of the proportionally small amount of mixer.

My favorite alcoholic beverage merely for the fact that it gets me hammered.
