The clink-clink of ice in an Arnold Palmer -- the drink that joins our two national summer refreshments, lemonade and iced tea -- can be heard anywhere from backyard barbecues to beach picnics. This not-so-standard rendition includes Jasmine-tea pearls, which bestow floral notes on sweet tangerine juice.

Cook's Note
Jasmine tea can become too tannic if allowed to steep for too long. A few minutes is sufficient to infuse the fresh tangerine with flavor.
