More of the Good Stuff

It’s been awhile since we shared a tasty treat with you here on Cageboy.com.  I have a good one for you today.  Having almost completely shaken the Diet Coke monkey from my back – I’m still left with a powerful thirst as a toil away each day.  And then I discovered Arizona Iced Tea Arnold Palmer Lite.  Half lemonade and half iced tea.  This is some goooood stuff.  Plus, it comes in these enormous “Alice In Wonderland” size cans or handy 1 gallon jugs.  I’ve also seen a green tea variety – but there’s really no need to mess with the original formula.  The can is adorned with all sorts of highlights from the career of golf legend Arnold Palmer who apparently “invented” the drink.  Arnold is making some sweet coin for pretty much getting his chocolate in my peanut butter by mistake.  But I can’t begrudge the guy – this is some tasty bev.  You wouldn’t think there’d be much rocket science to mixing equal parts lemonade and tea – but on a recent road trip, the highway Quick-E-Mart I stopped at didn’t stock the real-deal Arizona version and so I opted for some lesser concoction that was put out by a local dairy.  It had the same name on the label as the chocolate milk I bought for my kids.  Never trust a dairy to deal in anything other than milk and cheese.  It was hard to describe,.  It was almost if the tea part was too thick.  It left a disgusting brown residue on the walls of the container as I poured it into my glass.  Ooooooooggggyyyyy.
