Arnold Palmer (drink)

An Arnold Palmer is a beverage consisting of iced tea and lemonade, named after American golfer Arnold Palmer. According to Palmer, he was in the habit of drinking ice tea with lemonade at home, and in the late 1960s ordered the same at a bar in Palm Springs. A woman sitting nearby overhead him, and ordered "that Palmer drink", thus giving the mix its name. The drink is more commonly referred to as a "Half & Half" in many parts of the United States, especially the South.
