In October, Applebee's sold margaritas, or, ahem, Dollaritas, for just $1 each. Even though one bartender claimed they were mostly water (and Applebee's claimed the bartender was just making them incorrectly), people freaked out. And for good reason — you can't get a deal like that anywhere.
Now, for the month of December, Applebee's is back with another insanely cheap drink deal. This time, it's a $1 Long Island Iced Tea, or ahem, a Dollar L.I.T. In case you're not acquainted, it's a mix of vodka, rum, gin, tequila, triple sec, and sweet & sour mix, with a splash of cola. Yes, it's insanely boozy, and will contain 1.5 ounces of hard alcohol in each drink, though the brands of each alcohol will vary. It's available for just a buck all day, every day, for the month of December.
"The Dollar drink is back at Applebee's just in time for the holidays, and this time, folks can enjoy a $1 Long Island Iced Tea," Patrick Kirk, vice president of beverage innovation at Applebee's, said in a press release. "The Dollar L.I.T. is kind to your pocket book and a great drink to share with old friends and new ones this holiday season."
A spokesperson for Applebee's told BuzzFeed Food that the Long Island Iced Tea is one of their top five best-selling cocktails, and sometimes it's the most popular one, depending on the time of year. The deal is only at participating restaurants, though. If you want to see if your local Applebee's is participating, contact the restaurant or head to applebees.com/dollarteas after Dec. 1.
So far, the Internet is freaking out about the news — and about how drunk this deal might get them. So here's a reminder to take it easy and drink responsibly.
