Based on the classic Long Island Iced Tea cocktail, but with a tropical twist from the guava nectar! Pretty and pink, and not overly sweet. A splash of club soda adds a nice tickle, and keeps the drink from being dangerously potent. You can double the liquor and decrease the juices and soda amounts, to your individual preference. Serve in a tall glass garnished with fresh lime wedges, and add a pink straw for sipping. Very refreshing! P.S. This is also great made with Malibu rum! Adapted from an internet cocktail recipe site.
