Everyone who ever dines out with me knows that ever since the infamous job interview several years ago, my non-adult beverage of choice is hands-down an Arnold Palmer. I have a dream/delusion that one day Arnold Palmer and I will sit down in a sun-drenched clubhouse and sip Arnold Palmers together. We will avoid the subject of golf, since I know so little about it and instead discuss politics or ailments or religion - uncontentious issues. But, back to the point: Recipes.
Here's how to make an Arnold Palmer: Combine 5 oz. lemonade with 5 oz. iced tea in a tall glass with ice. Very satisfying.
As for the alcoholic Hop, Skip & Go Naked, this drink, which is the #3 version on www.drinksmixer.com, is a blend of vodka, lemonade and Budweiser lager.
If you weren’t very good in chemistry or fractions, or are too lazy to create an Arnold Palmer for yourself, you do have some options. AriZona Beverages produces an Arnold Palmer Lite Half & Half, featuring black & white photos of the great golfer’s finest moments on its labels. Additionally, Innovative Flavors L.L.C. has produced “the original” Arnold Palmer Tee®
In the adult beverage category, PGA golfer David Frost of David Frost Wines has paid homage to Arnold Palmer by dedicating several of its premier wines as the Arnold Palmer Vintage, including the 1999 David Frost Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, 1999 David Frost Merlot Reserve, 2000 Chardonnay and the 2001 Sauvignon Blanc. Each label features a portrait of Palmer painted by world-renowned artist LeRoy Neiman.
