A long Island iced tea consists of vodka, rum, tequila, gin, triple sec and a splash of cola. You can add a flavored liqueur, such as raspberry or watermelon, to give the drink a different flavor.
Vodka, Rum, Gin, Tequila
The drink calls for 1 oz. of vodka, rum, gin and tequila. Each liquor contains 64 calories for a total of 256 calories in the drink.
Triple Sec
A Long Island contains 1 oz. of triple sec. Each oz. of triple sec contains 103 calories.
Cola
A 12-oz. serving of cola has 140 calories. Because this drink only calls for a splash, or about 1 oz., it only adds between 10 and 15 calories. You can also make the drink with diet cola, which has zero calories.
Liqueur
You can add a flavored liqueur such as melon, raspberry or strawberry to give your Long Island extra flavor. An oz. of fruit flavored liqueur adds about 100 calories.
