quicko: "lemonade"

I think I've mentioned this before, but this time I've got a picture: lemonade is (gasp) carbonated here. Furthermore, while they know the word, Australians are likely to refer to "carbonated" beverages as "with bubbles" or "fizzy," which really sounds more like a science experiment gone wrong to me. Lemonade as we know it does not exist here.

Don't they call soda a "fizzy drink" in England, too?

Yes! Fizzy drinks! ...I am quite fond of fizzy water myself!

Or we call them "soft drinks". The term being opposed to "hard" as in alcoholic.
