Yes Patrick, limonade is a general term here for sweetened drinks with
most of the time a fruit flavour. I learned again... Using the wrong
word one easily does with this one.
Limonade mostly is sold here to make yourself.
It is syrup with a strong fruit flavour. You mix it with water,
but also some people add soda water. You made me curious now. These
syrups, how are they called in english ? I looked in my dictionary
and became confused after seeing some words: lemonade, threacle,
syrup. "Limonade" is available in many, many flavours overhere.
It is a very popular product in Holland, many brands too.
More and more people btw in Holland prefer drinks without the
CO2. It drinks easier. Some time ago I was in Belgium, they
call that a "flat" drink. Some people use Coke to loosen
rusted bolts and nuts here, which makes you wonder if it loosens
organs in your body, probably not.
Strawberry limonade with a little bit of lemon juice and ice,
if the weather is hot, tastes very good. It is old fashioned
perhaps, but I like it. Strawberry fields forever !
What also always confuses me are tv cooks who talk about lemons
and limoens. These limoens are small, would not know how they
taste.
