Re: From Laney

In Britain:

"Lemon squash" gets you a bland, non-fizzy drink usually made from concentrated cordial.

"Lemonade" usually gets you a fizzy, bottled or on tap, transparent liquid with a lemony taste. Schweppes and the like make this stuff.

"Homemade" or "old fashioned lemonade" will be cloudy, may be fizzy and may even have seen a lemon within living memory. A bit of a halfway house.

Bitter lemon I think is the same on both sides.

That's all I can think of. It truly is the small stuff that gets difficult!
