Edit: I thought "sprite" meant "Sprite(R)" the drain opener
Edit 2: Nope there are br*ts in the comments saying Sprite(R) is a lemonade

I feel like I'm not American enough to understand this. What's the big deal? Sprite is lemonade isn't it?

lemonade is whatever people are referring to when they say lemonade
No HFCS in British versions:
Water. Sugar. Lemon. It has some Lime I didn't know about, that's all. Still kinda a lemonade?

I have never heard of lemonade purists before this day and it's supremely funny to me. I'm going to go drink a 7up now.

They're two very different drinks. Home made non sprite lemonade, as in lemon juice from fresh lemons water and some sugar (I barely use any) tastes complexly different. I would suggest giving it a try if you can, it's damn good.
Notice the artificial sweeteners added in response to the sugar tax
I do but that's not HFCS, it gets labelled as fructose-glucose syrup here. We barely use HFCS in anything at all.
I can taste HFCS in your drinks, it tastes metallic and bad.

Sprite tastes mostly to lime, I really can't find the lemon taste in it.
I've never even noticed it has or says lime on the packaging rofl
Isn't the logo specifically yellow and green to represent the lemon lime nature of the drink? Or are all British drinks confusingly labeled
Mate you're not bringing irn-bru into this that's how wars get started. Nobody fucks with our irn-bru, nectar of the gods.
It's delicious, but what the fuck are these names
"Oi bruv, imma head down to the shop and grabba couple cans of Tizer and Ribben, you want a Vimto?"
They need civilised sodas like Code Red and Baja Blast
:NOOOOO:
Half of these drinks were originally sweets that have been around for hundreds of years. Vimto was a lolly. Irn-bru was a hard sweet.
Vimto is older than your country .
THE FUCK?Oh, wait a "lollypop"
When you think about it you notice that the sweet drinks industry walks alongside the old style of sweety tuck shops a lot. I wouldn't be surprised if cola didn't exist as a drink first and was in fact stolen from some "cola" sweet and trademarked as a drink.
Makes sense, since the only drinks being sold 100 years ago could only be alcoholic ones.
colas are from a tonic lineage, snake-oil health food
You're supposed to do it the other way
Dr Pepper is a pretty silly name too to be fair.
Wait to you hear about the grocery store generics
