If lemonade tastes the same to you as sprite, you need to go to the doctor or maybe the hospital because something is very wrong
Because what we call "lemonade" in Europe is not the same drink as what is called "lemonade" in the US, although we usually have our own variation (citronnade in France) that corresponds to the American one.
We know what you call it, you're just fucking wrong.
These are the same people who drive on the wrong side of the road and weigh themselves in stones.
Didn't know all of europe is now the UK
Get antibrexited nerd
Most of our schools are still safe tho :)
You're not wrong, but it is a bit like bringing Hitler into the conversation.
The US has never had Hitler, feel better now? Can we talk about soda and lemonade now?
What's lemonade in the EU, then?
Or rather, what do you call water, lemon juice and sugar blended together?
Speaking to 28 countries with 24 languages "WhAt Do YoU cAlL tHiS?"
Not that the UK is in the EU anymore, but we'd call that "Still lemonade", still meaning not sparkling.
Not to be confused with "Flat lemonade", which would just be regular "sparkling" lemonade which has lost its bubbles and now tastes rancid.
In Germany, Limonade is usually from oranges, so Fanta.
Limonade
Oranges
What is this madness? Limonade is made with lemon and lime. Or at least "limon" which is a hybrid of lemon and lime.
It's more that they're straight up called the same thing in those areas for some strange reason.
Where did this bullshit come from? Sprite is not lemonade in Europe or Australia, it's lemon and lime and I don't know anyone who doesn't know that. There's loads of brands of lemonade here and Australia, cloudy, traditional, clear...wtf?
Really? Because there are a lot of people who disagree with you.
-
Wikipedia saying " In the United Kingdom, Ireland, Central Europe, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, a carbonated lemonade soft drink is more common. Despite the differences between the drinks, each is known simply as "lemonade" in countries where it is dominant."
-
Quora saying “Lemonade” in Australia normally refers to a clear, carbonated, lemon-flavored beverage similar to 7-Up. “Lemon squash” is a cloudy version of the same thing (still carbonated). There’s no particular tradition of making non-carbonated lemon drinks at home, but if you did, you’d probably call it American-style lemonade."
However I did goof on it not being available. That I'll edit. But the rest of it seems to hold up...
I see on the Wikipedia article it seems to say that lemonade in the USA is flat, not fizzy? I think this is where I confused your question and we got our wires crossed. Anything that ended "ade" in the UK is a fizzy drink, like a pop/soda. Lemonade, cherryade, orangeade etc. Schweppes, Barr's etc make lemonade like that, clear, sweet fizzy and just lemon flavour.
I can't think of a drink that's fresh lemon juice as described on wiki over here. There is squash, or cordial, diluted juice with water. But lemon wasn't common or popular to the best of my knowledge. I'll look when I'm in asda the morn now though, just to see for curiosity.Well why the country fried fuck doesn't everyone drink uslemonade it's delicious. Keeps the scurvy down too.
After reading that article I have to say it looks amazing
