    It's so annoying that some pubs have sprite instead of white lemonade when u order a vodka and white.

    What's everyone's opinion

    They both taste the same when used as a mixer

    So long as the vodka is ok, I couldn't give a shıt about the mineral I'll be mixing into it tbh.

    I think the sprite is not as nice a mixer as lemonade. My life is in slow decline drinking alone In a pub on a Tuesday wondering what's the best mixer to have lol. Ah sure it's has to be done

    I don't know what vodka tastes like, but I like both sprite and white lemonade. :)

    I don;t really have one, but thanks for asking.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Sure if you're putting vodka through it, the taste must be negligible. Unless you use an awful lot of mixer to one vodka.

    Sprite is just a bit too sweet, prefer 7 up as a mixer to be honest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55 ✭✭chellyry


    I completely agree. If I wanted 7up or sprite I'd ask for that.

    OP does have a point, there is a difference between lemon and lime (7Up, Sprite, those two being slightly different themselves) and white lemonade (TK, Cadet). Perhaps it's the hint of lime (or lime flavoured sugary crap) that makes the difference? Is there different sweeteners used in them or just different amounts?

    Actually, do they even have white fizzy lemonade in other parts of the world? Or is lemonade to them the stuff that's made with actual lemons? But then you get pink lemonade in France, how does that fit in?

    Ugh, this thread raises far too many questions, I need to lie down for a while...

    I prefer to mix it with the saliva in my mouth and that's it.

    Drink half of it, tell them it's not what you ordered, request a new one, repeat!
