What Is Cider Shandy?
Shandy has long been a summer staple. Traditionally made by mixing beer or cider with lemonade, it creates a lighter, refreshing drink that’s perfect for relaxed social occasions.
Our take keeps that spirit alive but gives it the Brothers flavour treatment. We’ve created a modern cider shandy that delivers bold taste in a lower alcohol format. Explore our Brothers Cider Shandy range to see how we’ve put our own spin on the classic.
A New RTD Drink From Brothers
Our shandy range also sits within one of the fastest growing drinks categories in the UK: RTD drinks. RTD stands for Ready-To-Drink — beverages that are pre-mixed and packaged so they’re ready to enjoy straight from the can.
From canned cocktails to fruit-led alcoholic drinks, RTDs are popular because they’re covenient, consistent and easy to enjoy anywhere.
Brothers Classic Lemon and Dark Cherry Cider Shandy fit perfectly into this category — offering a low alcohol ready-to-drink cider that’s refreshing, flavourful and easy to share.
