The 19th hole – Sips

Sweet tea and lemonade are summer drinks of choice for any true southerner. Golf icon Arnold Palmer snagged a hole-in-one when he famously mixed the two in clubhouses the world over. Although this combination is great in and of itself, the handy bartenders at Zea Rotisserie and Grill use sweet tea vodka to spice up this marriage. A base of freshly squeezed lemonade is loved on with a shot of Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka and garnished with a lemon wedge to create the Adult Arnold Palmer ($7). Light and fun, yet dignified enough for any southern gentleman or belle, this drink is not overwhelmingly sweet and or arrogantly showy. Perfect for a front porch or a night out, the Adult Arnold Palmer is—just like one of its namesake’s famous tournament-winning putts—all about balance.
