One of my favorite drinks is an Arnold Palmer. Some people call it a Lemonade Tea. It’s half lemonade and half iced tea – usually sweet tea. I cut the sugar and use unsweet tea. I love this drink, especially for summertime and was wondering how you could dirty it up a bit and make a Boozy Arnold Palmer.

Have you tried Sweet Tea Vodka, yet?
Then, I read about sweet tea vodka. There’s a few different brands, and it can range from ten bucks up to a pretty expensive bottle of the stuff. Have you heard of it? It’s basically vodka flavored to taste and look like sweet tea.
I thought to myself that this might be an interesting combination with some lemonade. I told my husband about this idea, and he was intrigued enough to run up to the big giant liquor store and finally find a bottle.
We had Boozy Arnold Palmer drinks this past weekend, and it’s good! So good, I had to tell y’all all about it. If you aren’t a big drinker or someone who likes alcohol (that would be me!), then you’ll probably like this drink.
I do not like strong tasting drinks. I can only drink alcohol if I can’t taste it.
How do you make a Boozy Arnold Palmer with just 2 Ingredients?
This drink is totally simple, y’all. You fill a glass full of ice, add about a finger of sweet tea vodka, and then fill it up with lemonade. If you aren’t a big drinker, be careful, because this got me a little buzzed. And, I only drank half of it. I rarely ever drink alcohol and was surprised to feel a little tipsy.
My husband likes a stronger drink, so I gave him about an inch of the sweet tea vodka before adding lemonade. He really liked it. He also drink the whole thing and said he felt a bit of a buzz, too.
It’s a tasty drink when you’re wanting to relax and are sitting out on the back porch watching the sunset, and the kids are all running around like crazy in the sprinkler.
