    In the US, lemonade isn't fizzy. It's just lemon, water, and sugar.

      Yeah, this is what I think of when I hear "lemonade" too- a fairly simple and unprocessed drink you can easily make at home

              Wow, hold on, that's so revolutionary. Imma call it lemonjuiceade so we don't confuse it with our much beloved cornsyrupwith1%syntheticlemonflavorade

              Only yanks would pour nasty bitter juice into water and then add sugar to it to make it taste less bitter.

                    My little nieces from my small town were all exited for going to fucking Starbucks cuz they are massive snobs as most people here and they asked each some 1 liter shit "ice cream mocca ultra luxe dulce de leche coffee" and FUCKING HELL THAT SHIT WAS DISGUSTING, after 2 minutes they were both nauseated from so much sugar and my cheap fat ass had to finish both drinks cuz those garbages were really expensive.

                    After that I punished them making them drink ristrettos, I love that horrendous tar.

                      actual ice cream + coffee is a nice treat, but starbucks doesnt do that and their regular coffee is shiiiiiiiit. they serve a simulacrum of a decent artery-clogger

                Hey, I can make it in my home and don't have to buy it from the shop. A bag of lemons is like $8 and makes a gallon or so of lemonade

                It's sour not bitter and it's the drink of the Gods. Holy shit you've never had lemonade that sucks

                Yanks make fun of British cooking, and then drink barely-sugared lemon water…

                I see nothing wrong with it. British 'cooking' is trash and lemon water is great.

                  I'm crying for all the people in the world that think lemonade is sprite and not the easy to make from scratch delicious tangy sweetness that is lemonade.

                  Best part of it is that you can sweeten to taste and most lemonade still has less sugar than soda. Most of the flavor comes from the fresh lemon juice
