Cranberry Ginger Shandy Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

The popular shandy takes on a dark, fruity twist in the cranberry-ginger shandy. It's a simple recipe that turns the summer drink into the perfect beverage for autumn and winter parties, and it's incredibly easy to make. The pitcher drink will create four 12-ounce servings, but you can always pour shorter drinks or mix a larger batch for more guests. Spicy ginger beer and tart cranberry make this shandy unique. A little lemon juice adds a bright accent and a ginger-sugar rim makes every sip spicy and sweet. Finally, it's all topped off with beer for the full shandy treatment. Hefeweizen or another wheat beer is ideal with this flavor combination, but you can also pour your favorite pale ale. The lightest beers, like lagers, may not hold up to the darker fruit (save those for citrus shandies).
