Popular in the UK, where it's also known as a shandygaff, this cocktail is usually made of equal parts beer and carbonated lemonade. This version swaps out the latter for sparkling blood orange juice, which is a touch more exotic, and incredibly refreshing. This is a fantastic simple cocktail to whip up on a hot day.
