AriZona Arnold Palmer Half and Half - Big Can, 22 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)

Overview AriZona’s Arnold Palmer Half & Half is a tribute to golf legend Arnold Palmer, who popularized the simple yet refreshing combination of iced tea and lemonade. AriZona Beverage Company took that blend and turned it into a massively popular ready-to-drink beverage, available in iconic tall cans, bottles, and now multi-packs. It occupies a unique niche between soda and juice: less sweet than most sodas, more flavorful than plain iced tea. For many, it’s a nostalgic and affordable drink—often found in convenience stores, vending machines, and gas stations. Packaging & Branding: 9/10 Design: The large 23 fl. oz. tallboy can is instantly recognizable with a portrait of Arnold Palmer, golf visuals, and a black, yellow, and silver theme. Aesthetic: Retro yet athletic. It evokes summer, sports, and Americana. Practicality: The can size is generous and often sold for $0.99 (a key draw). It’s resealable in bottle versions but not the can. Taste & Flavor Profile: 8.5/10 Balance: The blend between tea and lemonade is surprisingly harmonious. Neither element dominates. The tea adds depth and slight bitterness, while the lemonade brings tang and sweetness. Sweetness: The original is moderately sweet—not syrupy like soda, but definitely on the sweet side. The Lite version tones this down noticeably and has only 50 calories per serving (vs. ~130 in the original). Acidity: The lemonade gives it a crisp, citrusy bite without being overpowering or sour. Mouthfeel: Smooth and light with no carbonation. It’s more hydrating than most sugary drinks. Nutrition & Ingredients: 6.5/10 Original Version: Calories: ~130 per can Sugar: ~34g (a lot) Contains: high fructose corn syrup, black tea extract, natural flavors, lemon juice concentrate Lite Version: Calories: 50 per can Sugar: ~13g Uses artificial sweeteners (sucralose and acesulfame potassium) While the flavor is great, the original version is heavy on sugar, and neither version is made with real brewed tea—it’s reconstituted from tea powder/extract. Don’t expect antioxidants or health benefits. The Lite version is favored by people watching their sugar intake while still wanting the signature flavor. The Spiked Arnold Palmer (with alcohol) is a different experience altogether but retains the core flavor. Performance in Different Settings: 9/10 Best Served: Ice-cold, ideally straight from the fridge or poured over ice. Occasions: Summer days, picnics, beach trips, after sports, casual sipping. It pairs well with barbecued foods or salty snacks. Pros Unique and iconic flavor Affordable (~$1 per 23 oz. can) Widely available Nostalgic branding with a clean taste Good balance of tartness and sweetness Cons High sugar content in original Tea is not fresh-brewed (extracts used) Artificial sweeteners in Lite version may bother some Can be overly sweet for some palates Final Verdict: 8.5/10 AriZona Arnold Palmer Half & Half is a refreshing, affordable, and well-balanced drink that lives up to its legacy. While not the healthiest choice due to sugar content and lack of real brewed tea, its taste and nostalgic charm make it a classic. It's ideal for casual enjoyment, especially on warm days, and offers enough variety to suit most preferences. If you’re into lemony iced tea that doesn’t overwhelm with bitterness or sugar (especially the Lite version), this beverage is an excellent go-to.

Yum! Came exactly how expected. Pretty cheap

I am addicted to these. That said, no other even comes close. No super sweat here - just great taste & pure enjoyemnt!

Low calorie and great taste.

Was a great price at 10 buck for a 12 pack but 17 is a bit much, I'll stick with my local Walmart at .88 a can.

yum so much sugar but love the big cans so it’s worth it and easy.

I actually don’t want to tell people about this drink it is so darn tasty and if they find out it will be out of stock all the time. Arnold Palmer at its finest. Buy two at a time so I don’t run out!

I've been subscribed to this deal for at least 8 years. Way cheaper than going to Publix, or your local bodega, if you can find it, there. And, it's never late.
