These shandies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar or adding some lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.

I'm not a big fan of lemon-flavored drinks, but I actually really enjoyed these shandies. The lemon flavor was subtle and not overpowering. The shortbread cookies were a nice touch and helped to balance out the sweetness of the sugar.

I thought these shandies were just okay. The flavor was a bit bland and I didn't really like the texture of the shortbread cookies. I probably won't make them again.

These shandies were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I would recommend using less lemon juice if you don't like your drinks too sour.
