GINGER BEER SHANDY

Purists will insist you use bitter for this, but I am too much of a girl, and like it best made with fizzy foreign lager. For that real, deck-chair bound summer feeling, drink in a reclining position, with a bulging sandwich – filling immaterial; white bread obligatory – clamped in your glass-free hand.

1 small bottle of fridge-cold lager

1 fridge-cold can of ginger beer

Pour the lager into a tall glass and then top up with as much ginger beer as you like.

Makes 1.
