Long Islands are only made one way (Former Bartender) but they taste differently according to the skill of the bartender. I never had a complaint about long islands, but that may be because they were too drunk. The bar I worked at last used jiggers with 5/8 oz rather than 1/2 oz so they were getting a lot of alcohol.

Collins Glass w/ ice

EXACTLY 1/2 oz each

Vodka
Gin
Rum
Tequila
Triple Sec

1 1/2 oz Sour Mix

Spash of Coke (enough to give it an iced tea color)

Stir well and add a lemon slice garnish

Note: To make a Long Beach Iced Tea replace the Sour Mix with Cranberry Juice, the Coke with 7up/Sprite, and the lemon wedge with a cherry.
