Lemonade and iced tea together ? I like the Sparkling ice lemon water as I noted but adding ice tea to it? I might have to try that !   Woman LOL


 

Arnold Palmers have been around since the 60s.  Have you really never heard of them?  They're in every grocery store usually by the Arizona brand, but there are many other brands.

@Goodie2shoes  What next?  How about "electric Lemonade"?  A can of lemonade concentrate, just reconstitute replacing  One of the cans of water with Vodka.

I don't know what is in "Long Island Ice Tea" but it came in a tall glass and packed a punch. Wouldn't feel it until standing up? Tried it 30 years ago.

 

"Twisted Tea" seems popular with boaters and outside concert goers, as noticed people drinking that. I have seen Ads.

I don't buy any of those pre made drinks, but often put vodka in my fresh brewed tea.  Flavored vodkas are especially good and refreshing.  Also, try it with peach schnapps.

@Travone   Never tried iced tea with Peach Schnapps!  I'll be trying it.  Lots of ice!  Thanks!

We drink Celestial Cold Brew Half and Half Iced Tea and also Southern Breeze Half and Half Cold Brew Iced Tea, both come with a little sweetener but no sugar.  Boxes are tea bags.

Yes. Also known as a "Half and Half." My husband really likes to drink this mixed drink flavor combo. He says that it's very refreshing to drink, for those who like to drink either lemonade or iced tea. It's one of his favorite beverages.

When I used to drink mixed drinks years ago, I had a Long Island Iced Tea @UpNorthGorgy  It was made by mixing a cola with Kahlua. It did taste exactly like iced tea and it did "pack a punch," like you described. Smiley Very Happy

    I have heard of "Long island ice tea" and I know it's been around for a long time but as I noted, I don't drink any kind of alcohol so I have no clue what it taste like. Many years ago up until the mid 80's  my drink of choice was Bud Light Woman LOL but I no longer drink any alcohol.  Just for laughs what's the most popular cocktail ?  ( I still won't be trying it) Woman LOL

@Goodie2shoes down here in the south we have been drinking Arnold Palmers for decades.  A good way to cool down after a round of golf or just because.  

 

There are actually canned AP's in the grocery store BUT not nearly as good at a restaurant or pub with fresh iced tea.

 

One of the favorites in this area is a Moscow Mule (vodka and ginger beer).  Ginger beer is  not alcoholic ---FYI and served in copper mugs OR just a plain vodka and cranberry juice.
