Red lemonade

Red lemonade (Irish: líomanáid dhearg) is an Irish soft drink that is considered a distinct part of its cultural identity and cuisine.

Lemonade in Ireland traditionally comes in three varieties – red, brown and white. All three are lemon-flavoured, but there is a marked difference in taste between the varieties. Red lemonade is particularly associated with festive occasions, but can also be a folk remedy.

Red lemonade is drunk on its own and is also served as a mixer with spirits in Ireland, particularly in whiskey. Major brands of red lemonade include TK (formerly Taylor Keith), Country Spring, Finches, Nash's, Maine, and C&C. There was an urban myth that red lemonade had been banned in the rest of Europe, but in fact regulators had simply banned a carcinogenic dye.
