The Arnold Palmer Is a Cocktail of Lemonade & Iced Tea. The Arnold Palmer cocktail is a mix of lemonade and iced tea, which was not something he invented. He just popularized it. According to About.com, the mix has been around for hundreds of years before he won his first PGA Tour tournament in 1955. Around that time, Palmer began mixing lemonade and tea for himself.
Approved spirits on a keto, low carb diet include: 1  Vodka (Three Olives, Absolut, Grey Goose, etc.) 2  Rum (Captain Morgan, etc) 3  Gin (Tanqueray, Beefeater, etc) 4  Tequila. Whiskey (Jack Danielâs, etc.) 5  Scotch. Brandy.  Cognac (Hennessy, etc.)
So the verdict for keto diet alcohol is: go clear and pay attention. Recognize that your tolerance will be lower while eating ketogenic, so you might respond to alcohol differently. And if you do decide you need a drink, stick to hard liquor and avoid those cute sugary drinks for the sake of ketosis.
