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.

“But—if you cannot give us ease—
Last of the race of them who grieve
Here leave us to die out with these
Last of the people who believe!
Silent, while years engrave the brow;
Silent—the best are silent now.”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

In this fresh, breezy atmosphere ... we will be surprised to find that many of our familiar old conventional truths look very queer indeed in some of the sudden side lights thrown upon them.”
—Bertha Honore Potter Palmer (1849–1918)
