The Spiked Arnold Palmer turns the classic iced tea and lemonade mix into a simple alcoholic mason jar drink. Vodka keeps the flavor clean while the tea-lemonade balance provides sweetness, acidity, and refreshment.
Fill a mason jar with ice. Add vodka, iced tea, and lemonade. Stir gently until the drink is cold and evenly combined. Serve immediately as a clean, low-effort jar cocktail.
Served over ice in a mason jar, showing a light tea color with the cloudy citrus tone of lemonade.
Pairs with sandwiches, grilled chicken, summer salads, fried appetizers, and casual picnic dishes.
The non-alcoholic Arnold Palmer became an American refreshment staple; the spiked version follows naturally in bars and home entertaining where iced tea and lemonade are already familiar.
Ideal for daytime parties, backyard meals, brunch service, and relaxed summer drinking.
Tea tannins give structure, lemonade adds citrus sweetness, and vodka provides a clean alcoholic lift without changing the core flavor.
Easy, familiar, and highly drinkable, designed for refreshment rather than complexity.
Bourbon can replace vodka for a warmer Southern profile, while extra iced tea makes the drink drier and less sweet.
