Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ fluid ounce vodka
  • ½ fluid ounce rum
  • ½ fluid ounce gin
  • ½ fluid ounce tequila
  • ½ fluid ounce triple sec
  • 1 fluid ounce sweet and sour mix
  • 1 fluid ounce cola, or to taste
  • 1 slice lemon

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients.
  2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour vodka, rum, gin, tequila, triple sec, and sour mix over ice; cover and shake well.
  3. Pour cocktail into a Collins or hurricane glass; top with splash of cola for color.
  4. Garnish with a slice of lemon and a few mint leaves. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Always shake your cocktail until the outside of the shaker feels cold to the touch. This ensures proper dilution and temperature.
  • Use high-quality ice cubes to prevent the drink from becoming watery too quickly. Large cubes melt slower than crushed ice.
