Bullshit.  And I'm sure he had lots of time to pick up hobbies like golf after he got rich.

i really think we do need to go back to the big search bar, or have a popup that comes and says, search what you're about to post, with a searchbar in the popup.

well the fact that a 2 page thread on this specific drink was made just 3 months ago, and that its been done a couple times before that, yes. in the 19 days that you've been on ns i woulda figured that you've seen the "use the searchbar" posts already...

If you actually can find the right tea and good lemonade, then its can be. I prefer the can over custom mix.

None, you drink APs for the refreshment. Then you booze accordingly after.

Never tried it, but I could see gin working well maybe.  Or, if you're a little more adventurous, bourbon would probably be good too.

according to wikipedia, his nickname is "the king" so maybe it could be called a "king arnold?"
"hey bartender, can i have a king arnold?" sounds ok...

That's not bad...that's not bad at all.


The question is, is this concoction just a regular ice tea/lemonade mix + alcohol, or is it a Long Island + lemonade?

Damn man, I'm very reluctantly agreeing with eHeath all over the place tonight. It's killing me inside. Custom Arnold can be great but... as Evan so kindly pointed out... it needs to be the right lemonade and iced tea, and the perfect ratio, otherwise it can easily get too sweet or whatever... but the can nails it pretty fucking well and it's always delicious and refreshing and incredible.

No way dude. Arnie is no where near sweet enough to be 85% lemonade. When I made my custom blends I'd actually do more iced tea...
