Ahhhh, Iced Tea, an especially crisp and refreshing beverage! It’s the perfect drink for a special summer gathering or extra caffeine throughout your regular day.

We have a few tips and tricks on ways to take your already delicious Casey’s iced tea and make a new flavorful creation!

 

Arnold Palmers

This classic drink is perfect for a hot summer day. Try all these fun variations!

 

Classic Arnold Palmer

An easy addition to iced tea … add Casey’s Lemonade! An Arnold Palmer is a top-choice summer beverage and has been a popular order at bars and restaurants since the 1960s.

The best part? This drink is incredibly easy to make at home and is usually thought of as a half-and-half beverage of equal parts iced tea and lemonade (though we suggest a splash more of iced tea)!

 

Raspberry Arnold Palmer

A twist on the classic Arnold Palmer beverage, try the same drink with Casey’s Raspberry Lemonade instead. Make it extra fancy by adding fresh raspberries and a basil or mint leaf!

Directions for both delightful drinks:
  1. Add ice to your favorite summer glass
  2. Fill the glass a little over halfway full with Iced Tea
  3. Add Casey's Lemonade or Raspberry Lemonade until the glass is full. Stir well
  4. If desired, add fresh raspberries and a basil or mint leaf to the glass for garnish. Enjoy!

Make it a cocktail! Add your favorite vodka (rum, tequila, and whiskey work too), add a shot, and you're set! Pro-tip: Hard alcohol is available at select Casey's locations.

Iced Tea Arnold Palmer Slushie

For an especially frosty treat on those extra hot summer days, hydrate with a fun Iced Tea Arnold Palmer Slushie to share with a friend!

All you need in 1 ¼ cup Casey’s Lemonade, 1 ¼ cup Casey’s Unsweetened Tea, some ice, and a blender.

Directions for this tasty slushie:

  1. Pour Casey's Lemonade into an ice cube tray and freeze until solid, 2-3 hours
  2. Pour your Casey's Unsweetened Tea into a blender, then add your lemonade ice cubes
  3. Pulse blender to begin to break up the ice, then blend. Stop to stir if necessary. Blend until smooth and thick (if needed, add 1-2 tablespoons more tea for smoothness)
  4. Pour into 2 glasses and serve with a straw!

 

Iced Tea Cocktails

Spiked Iced Teas are flavorful favorites for many! A perfect way to combine cocktail hour with tea time, here are two delicious choices:

Summer Peach Tea

When you want something fruity and boozy, this is a great easy recipe! Pour a shot of light whiskey over ice, then add a shot of your choice of peach liqueur for a sweet and fruity touch. Finally, top with your Casey’s iced tea and enjoy!

Tea Tini

Super simple and cute! A tea tini is simply vodka, your tea of choice, and lemon juice, shaken and served in a cocktail glass.

 

Crunched for time?

If you need something even easier than the simple recipes above, pick up Twisted Tea, Truly Iced Tea, or White Claw Hard Seltzer Iced Tea Variety from your nearest store. Cheers!
