Lemonade is a lemon-flavored drink, typically made from lemons, water and sugar. The term can refer to three different types of beverage: *"Clear" lemonade: In many western European countries, the term ''limonade'', from which the term "lemonade" is derived, originally applied to unsweetened water or carbonated soda water with lemon juice added, although several versions of sugar sweetened limonade have arrived on store shelves. *"Cloudy" lemonade: In the U.S., Canada, India and Pakistan (Nimbu Paani), and Iran ''lemonade'' refers to a mixture of lemon juice, sugar, and uncarbonated water, although there are many versions which contain artificial flavors instead of actual lemon juice. In Pakistan and India, Nimbu Paani is a common household preparation, made using freshly squeezed lemons, granular sugar, salt, pepper (and other spices as per preferred taste) and is invariably consumed fresh. *"Fizzy" lemonade: In France, the modern use of the term ''limonade'' refers to sweet carbonated lemon soft drinks. Likewise, in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand the term mainly refers to a colourless, carbonated, sweet soft drink containing either natural or artificial lemon flavor, such as ''Schweppes Lemonade''. In Sweden ''lemonad'' is synonymous with any carbonated soft drink, which means that even cola drinks could be offered to someone just asking for lemonade. :"Own Brand Lemonade" is a varity of Lemonade produced by supermarkets which is usualy cheaper then the premium alterntives. It may be labeled as economy, premium or simply as Lemonade but adressing which supermarket it was produced by.
