Favourite Drink during Gaming!

Is soup your favorite drink?

Sprite's carbonated water with a citrus flavour.
Lemonade's usually just lemon juice, water, and a ton of sugar.

That's traditional lemonade, but generally Sprite and 7-Up etc are called Lemonade over here.

Then we have stuff like Solo and Lift which is referred to as Lemon-Squash.

That'd be odd .

@MadeMang:
Never heard of Lemon-Squash, or Sprite/7up being called lemonade. That's pretty interesting though.
We've got pink lemonade, and raspberry lemonade here though. You can also buy lemonade with booze in it.

Let me shine a light on this confusion!

Americans... Usually, don't call things like Sprite and 7UP 'Lemonade' I think they simply refer to it as something like 'Lemon Soda'.

Americans still drink that tripe that is... Real lemon juice with a ton of sugar poured into it... (Which seems like the most pointless thing in the universe to me... Why not just drink an already sweetened fruit juice?) That is their 'lemonade'

While us UK and AZ Lemonade is pretty much only things like sprite, 7up and so on.

Because who the hell wants to drink lemon juice?!

[George]

Sharky is correct. Lemonade =/= Lemon-lime flavored Soda.

In Canada, it's just referred to as "pop". If anyone's getting more specific than that, it's usually just referenced by the actual brand name.

The whole appeal for lemonade, I think, is that it's got a sour bite to it, but it's still enjoyable to drink. The pre-mixed stuff is more common.

[MadeManG74]

I actually don't mind that traditional lemonade (as it's generally called) so long as theres plenty of ice and it's a hot day.

[SOUP]

It's definitely a summer thing. Best after mowing a lawn, or working in a garden .

You'd think a man like Ryan, that works in gardens would know a thing or two about the refreshing taste of Lemonade.

My great-grandparents had a pretty sizable vegetable garden while I was growing up. Lots of work.

I hope you know that every time I'm refered to as 'man' and not 'boy' i die a little bit inside.

Although the irony is that... When you would rather be called a boy then a man is probably the best sign that you ARE a man...

=(

Always... Back to drinks!

Anyways, I don't usually drink when I play video games but when I do it is usually either water or Dr. Pepper.

Hell yeah! We will now both be known as the team who both represent water and Dr Pepper while playing videogames, but never at the same time.

IRN BRU is what I wanted out of Mountain Dew, people kept going on and on about it... I imagined it would be a flavour all of its own... It's just fucking Sprite with an extra spoon of sugar... and Sprites just lemonade with a brand name.

Regular Mountain Dew was originally advertised as a drink for hill billies and rednecks. I just thought you would like to know that.

Also, do not knock down all of Mountain Dew! The basic flavor is pretty... Well, basic, but many of the other flavors are pretty damn unique. The blue one is pretty interesting.

Ah hey, that might be where I picked that up. Everyone here calls carbonated beverages soda, but I have always known it as pop. I spent the first 15 or 16 summers of my life up in Canada, so I guess that might explain it.

It is weird how the lamest topics on this forum always eventually have the most fascinating conversations and revelations.
