shandies

Diluted pub pints

Shandies is the plural of shandy, a drink mixing beer with lemonade or ginger beer.

The combination produces a lighter, sweeter, less alcoholic beverage than straight beer, popular in summer: We ordered shandies on the patio.

The drink goes by different names regionally—radler in German-speaking countries.
