Philly Trashcan

The Philly Trashcan is a bold, high-energy cocktail that combines multiple spirits with fruity and citrus flavors, all topped off with a Green Red Bull for an electrifying finish. This drink is not for the faint of heart—it’s a neon-green, party-fueled twist on the classic Long Island Iced Tea with a melon-flavored punch.
