The Arnold Palmer is half iced tea and half lemonade, named after the famous American golfer. Refreshing, simple and alcohol-free.

Ingredients

  • 100ml chilled black iced tea (unsweetened or lightly sweetened)
  • 100ml lemonade (still, cloudy lemonade is traditional)
  • Ice
  • Lemon wedge and mint, to garnish

Method

  1. Brew: Brew strong black tea, sweeten if you like, and chill it.
  2. Mix: Fill a tall glass with ice and pour in equal parts tea and lemonade.
  3. Garnish: Stir and garnish with lemon and mint.

Tips for the Perfect Arnold Palmer

  • Brew the tea extra strong so the ice doesn't water it down.
  • Palmer himself reportedly preferred more tea than lemonade.
  • Make a jug in summer and keep it in the fridge.

A Bit of History

Golf legend Arnold Palmer used to order this mix at home and at the clubhouse, and by the 1960s people were asking for 'an Arnold Palmer'. Add vodka and it becomes a John Daly.
