Right before I went into the hospital and rehab, I was Jonesing for an Arnold Palmer. I’m set to be discharged fairly soon, and I usually have 5 Guys for lunch when I make a supermarket/drugstore run. The people running the PCA program feel my nutrition was partly to blame for my issues. To me it was shitty care.

So I ask, do those machines, which allow customization have Ice Tea? I always had straight Coke Zero.

The Freestyle machine in the FireHouse Subs location near my office does not have tea, but, believe it or not, a mix of Mr Pibb and Lemonade actually comes pretty close to aa Arnold Palmer.

Saw a site mentioned that. It was by guys who sampled pretty much every combo with a brand.

I don’t see any type of tea listed on the official Coca Cola Freestyle webpage. Before they got the Freestyle machine, our 5 Guys had a separate iced tea dispenser next to the soda fountain. I’m not a tea drinker so I don’t know if they still have it.

> Freestyle fountains located in Firehouse Subs locations offer the chain's signature Cherry Lime-Aid. Fountains at Sea World Orlando offer an exclusive vanilla-flavored freestyle flavor called "South Pole Chill", and those located in Moe's Southwest Grill locations offer an exclusive vanilla/peach-flavored freestyle flavor called "Vanilla at Peachtree". Moes introduced a new flavor called Moe-Rita in May 2017 which "combines limeade, lemonade, orange and original flavors for a refreshi After Vault...

That said, Minute Maid is the only lemonade available in the Freestyle machine so even if they have tea your Arnold Palmer would taste like sewage water. Stop at 7-11 first and buy a real Arnold Palmer tea drink to have with your burger. 😉
