Wikipedia

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) ''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, Nimbu Paani is a common household preparation, made using freshly squeezed lemons, granular sugar, salt (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 soda, which means that even cola drinks could be offered to someone just asking for lemonade.
