Sweet Tea Boysenberry Shandy image

I love an ice-cold beer on a hot summer day. I also love sweet tea, so one day I got the great idea to mix the two. Wow! It was absolutely delish. I experimented with different flavorings, and this combination was my favorite. -Kelly Williams, Forked River, New Jersey

Overall, I thought this shandy was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This shandy was a bit too flat for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more carbonated drink.

The boysenberry flavor was a bit too strong for me. I think I would have preferred a more subtle flavor.

I found this shandy to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.

This was a great way to use up some leftover boysenberries. I also liked that I could use sweet tea instead of regular tea.

I'm not usually a fan of shandy, but this one was really good! The boysenberry flavor was subtle but still noticeable, and the tea balanced it out perfectly.

This shandy was a huge hit at my summer party! The boysenberry flavor was so refreshing and the tea added a nice touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.
