      I feel like you don’t know what real lemonade is because yeah you always get sprite or whites, if they think they’re being posh they’ll give you whites, which tastes exactly the same as Sprite so I don’t know what the point is.

        In the states, Sprite is a carbonated mildly lemon tasting soda pop. Lemonade is squeezed lemon and sugar, and maybe with something else like Strawberry, but fairly tart. And no carbonation, unless it’s specifically made with Seltzer or something. Or spoiled.

          I don’t know about American lemonade being tart. Every lemonade recipe I’ve tried has a fuckton of sugar added to it. Even when I cut the amount by 1/3 it’s still super sweet.

      …Yes it does, Sprite, Schweppes, even the own-brand stuff you get in the shops is all called Lemonade colloquially.
