John Daly | Local Cocktail From Fort Myers, United States of America | TasteAtlas

John Daly

John Daly is a spiked version of Arnold Palmer. It is a cocktail that combines lemonade and iced tea—same as Arnold Palmer—but it gets the alcoholic kick from vodka. The drink is made by pouring vodka, iced tea, and lemonade in a highball filled with ice.


The combination is stirred, and the cocktail is usually garnished with a lemon wheel and sometimes with fresh mint. The drink got its name after John Daly, a popular American golfer that is also known for his controversial lifestyle. It is believed that the drink was probably invented in Fort Myers, Florida, during the Dirty Gator Open.


This cocktail is refreshing and is best enjoyed during summer.
