choice of beverage

i love lemonade. seriously. i love it. and when i go to restaurants that serve "fancy" lemonades, i will usually order one. so rip and ting suggested that i make a site and rate lemonades. i'm sure they were joking. but imma do it anyway. :) btw, i don't know anything about wine or beer so i can't talk about its "body" or how it has a "malty finish.". it'll really just be simple stuff, and if i like it or not. ha!


fentimans victorian lemonade - uk
lightly carbonated, glass bottle, 9.3 oz / 275 ml, $5 at wurstkuche
"naturally fermented," <1/2% alcohol," lemon juice blended with "ginger root, speedwell and juniper extracts"
- i have no idea what speedwell is, but it did definitely have a hint of ginger, which i liked. didn't catch the juniper though. natural tasting, not sweet, pretty sour. would have again (but only if cheaper!!)

almdudler limonade - austria
carbonated, aluminum can, 11.7 fl.oz./ 330 ml, <$2 at euro market
herbal lemonade
- unusual lemonade. more like ginger ale mixed with 7up. reminds me of chinese aiyu jelly. not a strong taste, not sweet, a little sour. would have again. (though reep would not, lol)

hansen's natural cane soda in pomegranate - us
carbonated, aluminum can, 12 oz / 355 ml, <$1 at whole foods
not lemonade
- not very pomegranate-y. not much taste at all actually. a bit like italian soda, so it starts off like seltzer water, but has a fruity taste afterward. weird. wouldn't buy, but would drink again.
