Most self serve Coke machines have a tap for Minute Maid lemonade. Dispense 2 to 3 inches lemonade into bottom of the cup. Finish Filling cup with unsweetened tea. Stir well It’s better then adding a wedge of lemon to your tea. The lemon at self serve sometimes gets handled by many unwashed hands. ---

I was surprised at how good tea & lemonade are. It would be even better with fresh squeezed lemonade offered at the nicer clubs. ---

I was first introduced to iced tea with lemonade back in 1993, which appears to predate references to any connection with Arnold Palmer [by a decade or so](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Palmer_(drink)). I’ve been drinking it ever since, though 4-5 ounces of lemonade per half-gallon pitcher of sweet tea is my preferred concentration. ---

I wonder if carbonated tea would be good? People with a Soda Stream could try it. ---

I made this drink once where I put chocolate syrup into a glass of cold milk, and it made the milk taste like chocolate. What should I call it? ---
