Lemonade without sweeteners....
Can anyone recommend me a decent non-diet lemonade, or any pop in fact, that isn't full of horrible tasting sweeteners. They seem to have started to gradually increase the sweeteners and lessen the sugar in most soft drinks, but it makes them taste awful!!
Have the stupid "Euro-whateverthey'recallednow" tw*ts stopped the production of proper sweetened-with-sugar pop?

My favourite fizzy drink is a nice chilled can of Pepsi. It is better than coke and doesn't leave that gritty feeling on your teeth. I've managed to convert my girlfriend and family as well. Although I do understand what you're saying.... There's probably something on the Internet about this and recommendations.

You must be doing something wrong.
I can't tell the difference in taste.
Maybe your not putting enough gin in.

IMO Schewpps (sp.???) makes the best lemonade although it's very sweet. I have that in their pineapple juice when I'm out drinking.

Wait till your teeth rot for sucking too much fizzy pop. Cherryade tastes like Calpol. Absolutely minging drink. Pepsi is also a Coke wannabe. It doesn't have that zing factor that Coke has. Anyway, free country.

I was in heaven when I was in the US a while back as all their non diet drinks had NO sweeteners in them

I'd make my own, then. Our resident Nigella Lawson dpb has given a recipe in his post, just that he didn't suggest how to make it all bubbly. You could use carbonated soda instead of water, or at least 50% of carbonated soda. But if all ready made soda also has sweetener in it (it's possible with your luck), use 1970's soda making machine to manufacture your own. You should be able to get that machine from eBay.

Most 'regular' soft drinks these days have Sugar and Sweeteners in them. This is a cost saving for the manufacturers.
Tango used to be a nice drink (I'm bias here as I used to be the brand manager), they've completely ruined it now

Sprite used to be sugar-only but they've just brought out a "new recipe" with "Stevia extract"...
