The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

The Long Island is famous for doing one thing, and doing it well--packing a whole bunch of booze in a flavorful, easy-sipping drink. There may be five types of liquor in this pitcher, but it goes down as smooth as sweet tea on a summer's afternoon.

1 cup cola
1/2 cup sweet and sour mix
2 tablespoons gin
2 tablespoons vodka
2 tablespoons light rum
2 tablespoons tequila
2 tablespoons triple sec
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 cups crushed ice
Combine everything in a large pitcher. Fill individual glasses with additional ice and strain the Long Island iced tea over the ice to serve.
