Arnold Palmer Drink

Scratch-made Arnold Palmer Drink

The Masters is always played in the first full week of April at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. I was fortunate to go to The Masters Golf Tournament a few years ago. It was truly an experience I’ll never forget. You can read all about my experience in this post.

As a pro golfer, Arnold Palmer is legendary, having been the first to win the Masters four times, with 60 total PGA wins between 1954 and 1975. And, he made famous the Arnold Palmer beverage which is a non-alcoholic drink of sweet tea and lemonade.

The common belief is it consists of equal parts of the ice sweet tea and lemonade. However, in the video below he asks for 1/3 part lemonade in his iced sweet tea. In another video I found, he refuses to give the ratios.

Appropriate for a drink designed by a golfer for outdoor summertime activity, an Arnold Palmer is high in calories, sugar, sodium and carbohydrates with a little protein and almost no fat. This, some have found, makes for a perfect recipe for energy and electrolyte recovery during the heat and humidity of summer.

I think whatever ratio you find pleasing is how you should drink it. For my taste, I like a 2:1 ration iced sweet tea to lemonade over ice of course.

As well, some people call an Arnold Palmer with alcohol a Drunk Arnold Palmer or Arnold Palmer Spiked. However, an Arnold Palmer with alcohol is actually a John Daly. (Come back tomorrow for that recipe!)

To serve the Arnold Palmer classically, serve it in a tall glass like a Collins’ or highball glass over ice with a lemon wedge.

Since this is a mocktail, it’s safe to serve to children. However, don’t forget tea has caffeine so use decaf or monitor children’s’ consumption.

 

Please keep in mind that nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary based on products used.
