An Arnold Palmer is a beverage consisting of 1/2 iced tea and 1/2 lemonade named for golfer Arnold Palmer.[1][2][3] It is often called a half and half.[4][5]
Variations
A John Daly is an alcoholic mixed drink named after pro-golfer John Daly. It contains Arnold Palmer and adds vodka. A John Daly could also be made by combining vodka with lemonade and sweet tea.[6]
Lemonade iced tea is also sold under other names, such as Lipton Brisk, Country Time[7] and Sweet Leaf.[8].
A similar drink called the "Revolving Douche Bag" was invented on Eglin Air Force Base, FL. It consists of half and half and adds 2oz. of Danzka Vodka, 2oz. of Jim Beam Bourbon, and 2oz. of Bacardi Limon. The drink's strength rivals that of Long Island Ice Tea.
Also known as The Flop, common term used in Miami.
Mass-produced versions
In 1990, Mark Dowey, CEO of Innovative Flavors, a beverage company located in Orlando, Florida, ordered an Arnold Palmer at a country club. Knowing that Palmer had never capitalized on the product, Dowey recognized the branding potential, and drew up a business plan, on a napkin, to present to Palmer's agents at IMG. With a green light from Palmer and his team, Innovative Flavors set out to find a large distributor, and found a partner in the Arizona Beverage Company.
Ten years later, the brand is on track to reach $100m in sales, representing 10 percent of AriZona's business, and 40 percent of the company's overall growth. [9] Due to the popularity of the brand, various drinks based on the Arnold Palmer are sold, including "lite," zero-calorie, green tea, pomegranate, peach and pink lemonade variants of the beverage, all of which are fortified with various degrees of vitamin C.
In 2009, Innovative Flavors licensed a powdered tea stick, which can be poured into a bottle of water while on the go. Those sticks, Dowey says, have outsold almost every competitor in the space. [9]
