Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• A Tall Glass
• A Cherry
• A Lemon Slice
• 1/2 shot Tequila
• 1/2 shot Rum
• 1/2 shot Vodka
• 1/2 shot Gin
• 1/2 shot Triple Sec
• 2 oz. Sweet and Sour
• A Can of Coke
• Ice
• A Straw

1. Fill the glass to the top with Ice.
2. Hold your lemon slice on the outer edges and cut it from the middle all the way to the edge and through the skin. Then place the lemon on the edge of the glass and slide it all the way around the top of the glass.
3. Pour the tequila, rum, vodka, gin, triple sec, and Sweet & Sour over the ice in the glass. Mix well.
4. Fill the remainder of the glass with Coke. DON'T stir it. The pouring will mix with the liquor enough. Drop in the straw and enjoy!

Tips & Warnings

• Sometimes the liquor will separate to the bottom of the glass. Use the straw to gently re-mix your drink.
• Use a Meyer Lemon for more sweetness and less sour.
• Sliding the lemon on the rim helps make sure you get that little bit of lemon flavor with each drink.
• Add a cherry directly on top of the ice for extra sweetness.
• Always drink responsibly.
