‘Scanning for the nearest security guard’

It’s the drink that makes them think — and not in a good way.

Bartenders the world over seem to have the same attitude when it comes to one particular cocktail: the Long Island Iced Tea.

Mixologists often say that patrons who order this boozy beverage are intent on getting black-out drunk and are likely to become “loud and obnoxious.”

One bartender even said that he starts “scanning for the nearest security guard” once the drink is ordered.

A Long Island Iced Tea is a mixed drink consisting of vodka, tequila, light rum, triple sec, gin and a splash of Coca-Cola.

“For the most part, it is for people who are here to drink and think, ‘this is the fastest way to get to where I’m going,’” Morgan Robison, beverage director at Taiwanese restaurant Wenwen, previously told Thrillist.

Marisol Delarosa, a managing partner of the NYC bar Brass Monkey, told The Takeout that no one is ordering a Long Island Iced Tea because “they like way it tastes.”

“The person [ordering] wants to black out and will probably be loud and obnoxious about getting to that state of drunkenness,” she said.

Daniel Meursing, CEO and founder of Premier Staff, agreed, noting that “when someone orders a Long Island, I start scanning for the nearest security guard.”

On top of the behavior the drink brings out in people, it’s also a lot of effort to make, which is why Jamie Robinson, former bartender and current assistant food and beverage manager at Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort, told Business Insider that the cocktail is “a big no-no, especially at a busy bar.”

“You’re likely only going to order one or two unless you plan on ending up on the floor at some point during the evening.”
