      Sprite is lemonade. It’s probably the most popular brand. I’d guess 7up is the next most popular, but Schweppes could be up there too.

      The thing that Americans call lemonade just doesn’t exist here. I’d probably call it, like, lemon juice or something, maybe? I’ve heard the term “cloudy lemonade” used, too.

          We certainly are; have you heard about chips and chips?

          But within the English-speaking world, it’s the Americans who are the weird ones in this case. The poms, kiwis, and safas all use it the same as us, and I think Ireland does as well.
