Aargh I hate Google's fucking AI answers but I think it's right here. Replace the cola with lemonade and raspberry liqueur. I'd also try raspberry liqueur and Fresca instead of Coke.

A place for conversation about cocktails, ingredients, home mixology, the bar industry or liquor industry, glassware - this is not an exhaustive list. If you think it's in some way related to cocktails it's probably fine.
If you post something you didn't create give credit whenever possible.
Pictures and recipes are encouraged when posting a drink as a standalone post. Example of an ideal drink post:

We love garnishes.
Remember the code of conduct, keep it nice. In terms of cocktails- specific etiquette that might be different from other communities:
Mentioning your blog, insta, website, book or bar is allowed, yes. For now at least, we do allow self-promotion. If it gets out of hand this might change.
A good post with a drink you don't like is still a good post! Try not to conflate the drink and the post or poster. If someone has a relevant title, gorgeous photo and clearly formatted recipe of what you consider a truly terrible drink, a comment is more appropriate than a downvote.
On that topic: Polite critique/reviews of drinks (or posts, images, etc.) is allowed here. Encouraged , even. It's a good tool for improving your drinks and content. Really, just be nice.

no thats definatley not it. The thing was all alcohol ouside of sour or bitters. im thinking no bitters even I just get them confused. it was crazy because it was really tasty but hit like a freight truck. you can get a pretty good thing with just chamborg and vodka with some sour I think (purple hooter) but whatever the thing was my sister and some bartender friends of hers could make was way tastier.
Could they have used lemon vodka, like Deep Eddy?
no it was definately very close to a long island ice tea with the coke switched for chamborg. it was only later I found out the tequila was likely not a part to. I don't even think it had bitters but likely did sour. I just can't get the proportions right and replicate it. I have never been that good with drinks though.
Some kind of magic. Sour mix does taste lemonadey, so perhaps the liquors were cancelling each other out somehow.
yeah not sure. figured there was a comunity so I would give it a shot that someone had encountered it. I don't think even my sister remembers how to do it right as I asked her about it but this is the type of thing were there where like two decades between when she was doing bartending and I was young and drinking at nightclubs and then being like hey remember that drink. So its like lost in time. Kinda funny because at one point she was really looking for it to be her career.
