The Beverly Hills Iced Tea Cocktail is a variation of the Long Island Iced Tea, but it’s more refined and elegant. If you can’t decide whether to use gin or vodka in your cocktail, no worries – this iced tea includes both gin and vodka.
Long Island Iced Tea is traditionally topped off with cola and Beverly Hills Iced Tea is topped off with champagne.
