Lemonade

Lemonade refers to one of two beverages. In the US it refers to a mixture of lemon juice, sugar and water. In the UK it refers to a carbonated citric drink comparable to the soda brands 7Up or Sprite.

An approximate recipe for US lemonade is to mix equal volumes of lemon juice and sugar and add water to taste, approximately four times as much water as lemon juice. About three quarters the volume of sugar is likely to be better to the taste of most people. A pink lemonade variation can be produced by adding red food coloring or grenadine syrup.
