A: An “Arnold Palmer” is made with iced tea and lemonade. Why would a server card you for a non-alcoholic drink?

A: "An alcoholic version of the beverage (generally made with vodka) is often referred to as a John Daly.[4] However, MillerCoors began marketing and distributing a commercially available malt-based version of the beverage under the Arnold Palmer Spiked name in early 2018.[5]" [from the Wikipedia entry for "Arnold Palmer (drink)"]

So, I assume there was alcohol in it and thus your 3-year record was ruined? And you want to sue the restaurant? You should have asked what was in it. Also, you have no money damages.
