arnold palmer

no, i am not writing a post about a pro golfer.  this post is about the drink.

over memorial day, craig and i spent a lovely day poolside with my sister, my cousin and her husband.  throughout the afternoon we were sipping (spiked) arnold palmers.  they were so delicious...a little too good, if you know what i mean : )

this simple summer sip is super easy to make and will surely delight all drinkers.  the traditional drink is 1/2 lemonade and 1/2 iced tea.  to create our cocktail version, we used sweet tea vodka and crystal light lemonade.

pink lemonade or traditional?  your pick.  credit {here}
recipe for one (though this drink is a crowd pleaser...)

1 shot sweet tea vodka
4-6 oz lemonade (depending on how strong you like it)
serve over ice
garnish with lemon wedge

so, there you have it.  it's simply fabulous, if you ask me. 

the only thing i do not like about this drink is that it's a bit of a tongue-twister.  try saying "arnold palmer" five times, fast!  i think i may turn to calling them "arnys".

  9. Be able to create an effective injury in d3 because no harm can be immune, therefore d3, is to ensure the effective and safe time damage output. Effective safety time when injuries?To buy Diablo 3 Gold enjoy comfortable service! Effective means can hit each other, for example, each other one second of the time you can escape from your attack range, then the the effective output time is one second, but at the same time the opponent's attack hit you in 0.5 seconds, so you must 0.5 seconds to stop your attack, defense or escape, and 0.5 seconds, the industry is your security events, effective security attack time is about 0.5 seconds.
