The Aloha Shandy

Ingredients

  • 4 cups water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 6 3-inch strips lemon peel
  • 2 2/3 cups passion fruit juice or mango juice
  • 1 1/3 cups fresh lemon juice (about 6 lemons)
  • 5 12 ounce bottle wheat beer, chilled
  • Lemon slices

Preparation

Step 1

1. For syrup, in a small saucepan combine 1 cup of the water, the sugar, and lemon peel. Bring to boiling, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat. Cool slightly; discard lemon peel.

2. Transfer syrup to a large pitcher. Stir in the remaining 3 cups water, passion fruit juice, and lemon juice.

3. Pour about 3 cups of the juice mixture into two ice cube trays. Freeze about 3 hours or until firm. Cover and chill the remaining juice mixture until needed.

4. To serve, carefully pour beer into juice mixture in pitcher (mixture will foam). Place two or three of the prepared ice cubes in each glass and top with beer mixture. Garnish with lemon slices.
