You mean a Long Island Iced Tea? Equal parts gin, rum, vodka, & tequila, and a splash of triple sec. Fill 2/3 whatever container you're using w/ sweet & sour mix. 1/3 coke. (color should be that of iced tea) Add fruit. Over ice, of course.

Sounds like a long island iced tea.
standard recipe is 5 shots of white/clear alcohol, bulid into iced filled large glass, top up with coke/lemonade/gingerale, add lemon juice.
I usually use vodka, gin, tequila, bacardi and cointreau.
4 of these gives me a headache......

Well, two of your links are for Long -Beach- Iced Tea, and the other is for Long -Island- Iced Tea. LIT is the traditional version- 4 or 5 clear liquors, (almost all the recipes I've seen use vodka, gin and triple sec, plus either rum or white tequila or both), sour mix and coke.

For a Long Beach Iced Tea, just substitute cranberry juice for the coke.

I've also seen a variation called a Manhattan Island Iced tea, where you substitute sprite for the coke.

That first one, with the melon liqueur, is an odd version. I don't think it'd taste very good, either. =P
