You don’t have to have Tiger Woods’ game to enjoy golf’s greatest mocktail: the Arnold Palmer! In fact, ever since Palmer revealed his “winning” recipe, plenty of non-golfers have gone gaga for this refreshing drink. While many manufacturers have cashed in on the “Arnold Palmer” name, there’s still nothing like making this mocktail at-home with fresh ingredients.
Of course, this wouldn’t be a Tribe CBD blog post without a pinch of our popular citrus-flavored CBD oil! Just a dropperful of CBD in your Arnold Palmer is sure to get you screaming “fore!”
Arnold Palmer + Tribe CBD
If you want the best-tasting Arnold Palmer imaginable, you’ve got to make your ingredients at home. We know; it’s so convenient to buy pre-made Arnold Palmer formulas nowadays. Although some brands have OK flavors, homemade blends always “win the game.”
Plus, it’s not like making a fresh Arnold Palmer requires a degree in bartending. Heck, most of you probably learned how to make lemonade when you were a kid. As for iced tea, just look at the instructions on the side of your Lipton box!
For those of you who never had a “lemonade stand,” here’s a quick refresher course:
- Mix ½ cup of sugar with ½ cup water in a saucepan
- Cook on med-low heat until the sugar dissolves
- Pour the sugar water into a separate cup and allow it to cool
- Once cooled, pour 1/3 cup of your sugar water into a pitcher with ½ cup fresh lemon juice and 2 cups of water
- Taste and adjust for your desired sweetness
CBD Arnold Palmer Recipe
Ingredients
- ~4 oz lemonade
- ~4 oz iced tea
- 1 dropperful Tribe CBD oil (citrus)
- Lemon wheel
Directions
- Fill a highball glass with ice cubes
- Pour equal parts iced tea and lemonade
- Add a dropperful of Tribe CBD oil
- Garnish with a lemon wheel
Before we get a flood of emails from “teed” off golfers, we are aware Arnold Palmer didn’t drink his signature drink with equal parts lemonade and iced tea. According to most reports, the golfing giant enjoyed this mocktail with only a hint of citrus. So, if you want your Arnold Palmer to be more “authentic,” try a 2:1 tea-to-lemonade ratio.
For those who don’t care about authenticity, you could find loads of variations on the Arnold Palmer. For instance, many people enjoy spiking their drinks with some bourbon or vodka. You might also want to experiment with a touch of simple syrup for extra sweetness.
