An Arnold Palmer is a non-alcoholic beverage that combines iced tea and lemonade). The drink is named after the professional American golfer Arnold Palmer, who was known to often request and drink this beverage combination). The drink has been sold under the Arnold Palmer trademark via a licensing arrangement with Innovative Flavors since 2001, and the Arizona Beverage Company began marketing and selling the beverage with Palmers picture and signature on the bottle in 2002 and has handled distribution ever since). The line has expanded to include various flavors including Green Tea, Southern Style Sweet Tea, Pink Lemonade, Zero Calorie, Strawberry, Peach, Mango, and Natural Energy). The drink is often mistakenly thought of as an equal mix of tea and lemonade, but Palmer preferred three parts unsweetened tea to one part lemonade). However, when mixed equal parts tea and lemonade, the drink is sometimes called a Half & Half or Arnie Palmer).
