• 6 oz Lemonade
• 1 slice Fresh lemon slice (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Chill a large glass or beer mug in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, or ensure it is cold to enhance the refreshing nature of this cocktail.

Step 5

5. Stir gently with a long spoon if necessary to combine the liquids evenly, taking care not to disturb the carbonation.

7. Serve immediately and enjoy your crisp and zesty Lemon Beer Clara (Shandy)!
