I drink mostly neat, every now and then when I am feeling adventurous I will add two ice cubes to my various spirits.

Every now and then I really enjoy a nice spiked ice tea, I find the quality of the tea to be more important than the alcohol most times. Has to be fresh brewed and has to be strong.

I'll mix just about anything with the tea, from vodka to gin to rum. I'll even do the flavored version of the above like lemon, mint, etc.

Does anyone else appreciate a nice hard iced tea and if so what are your recipes.

Club soda is it for me. Ice cold vodka, club soda and a lime wedge. Refreshing.

Sounds okay, one time at a tail-gait party I had whiskey with diet iced tea and a lot of it, and it was at a concert and half way thru I vomited from my seat.

I love Long Island Iced Teas but they have no iced tea in them.


I think sour mix is an underrated mixer, goes well with almost all liquors.

No thanks. The first time I ever got seriously drunk was on Texas sweet tea. I was 14. We were visiting relatives in Texas. They were "non-drinking" Baptists. I had gone catfishing with the old man and we were having a fish fry afterwards. Fried bullhead catfish and hush puppies outside. The old man said "get you a big glass of that sweet tea and let's go out and I'll show you my garden." Behind the tall corn was a garden shed and in a chest in the garden shed he had a bottle of whiskey. "Take a big old slurp of that tea" he said so I did and he topped up about two inches of my big tea glass with whiskey. Somehow I managed to eat those greasy fish and cornmeal glops before napping the afternoon away.
