Description: A simple half-and-half blend of iced tea and lemonade, named for the golf legend who reportedly ordered it often.

Cultural Background: Named for professional golfer Arnold Palmer, who was famously fond of the combination at clubhouses in the mid-1900s.

Tips: Brew the tea strong, since dilution from ice will soften it.

Variations: Add a splash of ginger ale for a fizzier "Arnold Palmer Spritzer."
