Bright and Citrusy Tokyo Iced Tea | Drink What You Want with John deBary | Food52

Food52 Drinks Resident John deBary is back with another sinfully delicious concoction, a Tokyo Iced Tea. It’s a bright and citrusy riff on the Long Island Iced Tea made with quality spirits including vodka, gin, white rum, Midori, triple sec, as well as fresh lime juice and Mountain Dew (you read that right!). Don’t be intimidated by the amount of alcohol, the cocktail only calls for small amounts and the high-caliber ingredients make all the difference! GET THE RECIPE ►► https://f52.co/3xfRW1R
