An Arnold Palmer drink combines lemonade with which other drink?
Answer
iced tea
An Arnold Palmer drink combines lemonade with iced tea.
The Arnold Palmer is a non-alcoholic mixed drink named for the American professional golfer Arnold Palmer, who was known for ordering and drinking the combination. It is commonly served cold over ice and may use sweetened or unsweetened tea, depending on the recipe or region.
Palmer said the drink’s name spread after a woman copied his order during lunch in Palm Springs, California, in the late 1960s. He preferred a stronger tea proportion—about three parts unsweetened tea to one part lemonade—while the widely sold “half-and-half” style uses equal parts. These ratios are variations, not different base drinks.
The beverage is sometimes confused with an alcoholic cocktail, but the classic Arnold Palmer contains no spirits. Its best-known alcoholic relative is the John Daly, made by adding vodka. Commercial versions followed later: the Arnold Palmer trademark was licensed in 2001, and Arizona began selling a bottled version in 2002.
