Almond Palmer
This is my twist on that well known Arnold Palmer drink made from half iced tea and half lemonade. It is just as refreshing as a traditional Arnold Palmer drink and works equally well with almost any meal or shared with your campsite neighbors. The almond extract adds a little mystery because most people can taste that something is different but not be able to identify the special flavor. I like having them try to guess the secret ingredient as they enjoy their first glass or two.
Ingredients
4 cups brewed tea, chilled
3 cups cold water
1 12 ounce can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract or Amaretto liqueur to tasteDirections
In a large pitcher combine all of the ingredients and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Serve over ice.
May also be served hot on cold days by heating a mug full in the microwave.
For the grown up version I use a splash or three of Amaretto added directly to the top of each glass right before serving.
Serves: 4 to 8

You may notice that some of our recipes do not contain exact measurements for all ingredients. Cooking on the road is an art more than a science. We view each recipe as only a suggestion - a starting point for your own personal creativity.
We aren't usually dealing with food chemistry in these recipes since we aren't baking with leavening, etc., so feel free to use as much or as little of any suggested ingredient.
