Combine all ingredients and pour over ice in highball glass.
Add cola for color.
Garnish with a wedge of lime.
The cocktail uses equal parts vodka, tequila, gin, light rum, and triple sec (1/2 jigger each), plus sour mix and cola.
It's a very potent cocktail with 2.5 jiggers of liquor, so drink responsibly and serve with food.
Triple sec is a key ingredient, but you can substitute cointreau or another orange liqueur for similar results.
Use 1/2 to 1 jigger of sour mix depending on sweetness preference, then top with 3 jiggers of cola and ice.
Fresh lemon-lime sour mix offers better flavor, but bottled works well for convenience.
