Spiked Arnold Palmer Cocktail Recipe | Happiest Hour

For an Arnold Palmer with a twist you'll need three simple ingredients: vodka lemonade and iced tea. This recipe will also show you how to make a glass of lemonade from scratch. "Bartender's Lemonade" uses a basic formula of 1 part lemon juice and simple syrup to 2 parts water shaken with ice for the perfect balance of sweet and sour. It's a great alternative to mixing up a whole pitcher of lemonade when you want a glass of lemonade or need a small amount for a cocktail. You can skip that step and use pre-made lemonade in the cocktail.

For iced tea black tea brewed with hot water and then chilled is one of the most flavorful options. Use your favorite type of tea or make sweet tea if you prefer. Vodka is the most popular liquor in this drink—Arnold Palmer famously favored Ketel One—but rum tequila and whiskey are all fine alternatives. Flavored lemonades teas and spirits are also fun options.
