I just got a call for a cookie order for this weekend. It's for a teacher and would be great advertisement. She has to take cookies to a tea party but said it's more "Long Island Ice Tea!" She wants something very unique. Any ideas! It's only for a dozen cookies so it's okay if it's labor intensive. I really want something to wow them. Please help, she's waiting for me to call with ideas!

What about a cookie that looks like a tall glass with tea in it and maybe a lemon on the glass rim or inside the tea. Possibly a straw coming out the top? Below are some examples. I think you could make them very cute.

I think these pics look too much like regular iced tea. Perhaps an umbrella like novice pointed out, or a hurricane glass? Something to push off that its an alcholic drink?

oops, sorry. I love long islands! I think an important thing to capture is the color grade from red to yellow.

Uh-oh, it's saying "fatal error" when I try and view your photos. That doesn't sound good!

Kneadacookie, I love the bubbles in your drink! Thats so cute!
About the color gradient, usually the red is on top, fading into the yellow. (grenadine into the juice)
