    Notes

    Here are a few tips to have your best shandy experience:
    For a sweeter version, add a bit more apple cider.
    To make it spicier, use ginger beer instead of ginger ale.
    If you prefer a non-alcoholic drink, replace the beer with more ginger ale.
    Taste as you mix to find your perfect balance.
    Enjoy experimenting, and let me know your favorite combo in the comments! 😄
