sweet breezes 'gainst

bare feet

swathes of sunshine

some strawberries

between infinite spectrums of greens

no plans

coconut-peach yogurt pops

& panaches 

as the sun

moves 'cross the

sky

behind th' leaves of

tall oaks

Do you like to have lazy plan-less weekends too?

IMG_1552Refreshing Summer Panache

This refreshing summer bevy known in France and Italy as a Panache, in England as a Shandy, and in Germany as a Radler, is a lovely fusion of pale ale and sparkling lemonade. Simple. Easy. Delicious. For a hot, summer day.

Summer Panache

  • Pale ale
  • San Pellegrino sparkling water
  • Fresh lemon juice
  • Sugar

Combine equal parts chilled Pale Ale and San Pellegrino in a tall glass. Add freshly squeezed lemon and sugar to taste. Stir to combine. (Alternatively, substitute a french style lemonade for the Pellegrino, fresh lemon juice & sugar. It just happened I had the latter 3 ingredients on hand. And it was delicious!)

PS. Adding grenadine to the mix makes a Monaco!

What is your favorite refreshing summer bevy?
