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.

“So much unlearnt, so much resign’d—
I come not here to be your foe!
I seek these anchorites, not in ruth,
To curse and to deny your truth;”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
“... the sentimentalist ... exclaims: “Would you have a woman step down from her pedestal in order to enter practical life?” Yes! A thousand times, yes! If we can really find, after a careful search, any women mounted upon pedestals, we should willingly ask them to step down in order that they may meet and help to uplift their sisters. Freedom and justice for all are infinitely more to be desired than pedestals for a few.”
—Bertha Honore Potter Palmer (1849–1918)
