summer shandy
Lemonade plus lager
A summer shandy is a refreshing drink made by mixing beer—typically a light lager or wheat beer—with lemonade or citrus soda.
The combination cuts the beer's bitterness and alcohol content, making it popular for warm-weather drinking: We ordered a round of summer shandies for the patio.
Commercial versions are widely available, though the drink is easy to make at home.
