Ingredients

  • ½ C cranberry juice cocktail chilled*
  • ¼ C fresh-squeezed orange juice*
  • ½ C ginger ale chilled
  • ¾ C farmhouse ale beer, chilled*

Instructions

Notes

*100% cranberry juice can be used in this recipe in place of the cranberry juice cocktail if preferred. This will reduce the sweetness of this shandy recipe.
*¼C of juice is approximately the juice of 1 large orange.
*wheat beer is another good option for making a cranberry shandy if you do not have or cannot find farmhouse ale.
