Heatwave

We adore a good slow-sipper, but when it comes to quenching your thirst on scorching summer days, nothing beats the classic shandy. Typically crafted with equal parts beer and lemonade, we’ve put a zesty twist on ours by swapping out lemonade for a ginger lime shrub, adding some bright complexity to this favorite summer drink.

A happy hour moment, as a woman gracefully pours a Heatwave zero-proof cocktail into a glass.

  • 1 oz fresh orange (sweeter) or grapefruit (tarter) juice
  • 1 egg white (or aquafaba)
