Saffron-Limoncello Shandy

Inspired by British shandies—beer mixed with ginger ale or sparkling lemonade—this refreshing drink ups the ante with English hard cider and limoncello.

1 oz. limoncello
½ oz. saffron syrup
4 oz. dry hard cider
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: Collins
Garnish: lemon twist

In a shaker, combine the limoncello and saffron syrup with ice. Shake to chill. Strain into an ice-filled Collins glass. Top with cider and garnish.
