And why I drink it almost every day

I like Arnold-Palmer's, but they have a few key downsides that led me to make my own variation.

What's wrong with an Arnold-Palmer?

  • They're loaded with refined, processed sugar

  • Tea bio-accumulates fluoride

  • Tea (black) acidifies the body

  • The "lemon" flavor is often just flavor, not real juice

What's my variation on the Arnold-Palmer?

It's super simple...

I also formulated it to be alkalinizing, since I've found that people who like to drink Arnold-Palmer's the most tend to be the people who become the most acidic. This is an easy "swap" for them in their daily routine.
