each summer growing up i'd head to my grandmas (ninny as we call her) in mississippi.
i loved to visit her. i could always count on lots of hours in her little garden, southern made veggies, sweet iced tea, and lots of lemons.
It's warm here in Florida - like 80 degree warm (don't hate me)... so I needed something refreshing.
agave arnold palmer to the rescue!
you just cut your unsweetened iced tea with the agave lemonade
to make the agave lemonade: juice the lemons (12), cut with 4.5 cups of water, and 3/4 cup of agave. stir!

a delicious mid day treat!
what's yours?
Yumm... I love me some Arnold Palmer
ReplyDeleteI just had a deliciously crisp Fuji apple for an afternoon snack, but I definitely would not have turned down yours!
ReplyDeleteMmmm that sounds delicious!!!! Will try that this summer!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds much more delicious than the iced coffee I'm having! Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteHmmm....hot chocolate? It's a little colder here in Boston. ;-) (*This does look delicious though!)
ReplyDeleteLove how you styled the second photo Sarah! Arnold Palmers are our favorite! Sometimes, we spike them, or just drink them regular. But i've not had a fresh squeezed one. So good!
ReplyDeleteSo good! (From a Mississippi girl)
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of an arnold palmer! Thanks for introducing this mississippi girl to a new treat!
ReplyDeleteThis make me want to go to my Aunt's house in Florida. It's one of my favorite places to visit. But since I am here, in blustery Seattle, my mid-day treat is Starbucks new Blonde roast... yummm.
ReplyDeleteoh I bet that is so refreshing! reminds me of summers spent in Tennessee and Arkansas:-) xoxo

ReplyDeletemmmm...that sounds delicious and refreshing. wish i had a reason to make a cold drink.
ReplyDeletethis looks wonderful! i didn't start drinking sweet tea till i was about 22 & now i am addicted. what was i thinking waiting so long?! i use agave to sweeten my smoothies too.
ReplyDeleteMy FAVORITE drink out there!
ReplyDeletei wish i was somewhere right now where i actually needed a cold resfreshing drink! looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteWow this looks delish - thanks so much for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteMy hubby loves Arnold Palmers and I love Agave. So this is perfect! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYum! That looks delicious! It's a bit colder over here in Scotland, so I'm reaching for my favourite Darjeeling tea every afternoon!:)
ReplyDeleteIn the summer, its always lemonade. I'm going to have to try yours once it warms up here in a few months!
ReplyDeletesounds lovely :)
ReplyDeleteOh I'm SO jealous of your weather, it was just snowing here yesterday! This looks so refreshing and delicious, gorgeous pictures :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! I love agave and arnold palmers!
ReplyDeletei LOOOOOOOOOOOVE arnold palmers. i make them here with lipton iced tea and tj's lemonade. way less fun than yours.
ReplyDeleteAhhh I am obsessed with Arnold Palmers already...and this version looks so tasty!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful lemons, did you grow them in your yard? I wish I was able to grow citrus but the weather in Illinois is too extreme. I happen to love a few slices of avocado and tomatoes sprinkled with pepper. So fresh!!

ReplyDeleteomg yum!!! ugh, 80 degrees, sarah?!?! that can't be real. I seriously have forgotten what the sun feels like/looks like. I desperately need a beach/tan/sunny warm weather... alas, it will be a few months for us.. will have to keep this recipe in mind when the temps finally do heat up in.. August. haha
ReplyDeletethat sounds delicious! my fav afternoon treat is a cup of green tea in the winter, or a piece of fresh fruit in the summer :)
ReplyDeleteMakes me think and dream about summer. I love Mojitos!
ReplyDeleteOne word: yum! I love drinking these in the summertime, I could really go for 80 degrees and an arnold palmer... How many months until summer for me?
ReplyDeleteMmm, between the 80 degree weather and the look of those fresh lemons, I should look into moving to Florida.... Good ol' Arnold. That looks delish.
ReplyDeleteYummy! I am going to try this once warmer weather arrives!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm this sounds great! I love agave over sugar. I'll have to remember this recipe for summertime :-)
ReplyDeletemmmmmm, delicious! These pics would be great framed in a kitchen!
ReplyDeleteOh that sounds so yummy and summery!
ReplyDeleteSarah Tucker! I JUST bought some super yummy Meyer Lemons (which I've never gotten before, but knew were 'legendary') and was wishing I had something special to do! This is it :D
