I think the most well-known of these is lemonade.  I think the majority of people who drink lemonade don’t specify that it’s from lemon juice and that they’re using the right proportion of lemon juice to water to make a true lemonade.  For example, a typical drink that’s often called “lemonade” is a soda called Sprite, which has a base of Sprite and tastes sort of like lemon-lime.  If you’re talking about true lemonade, it’s made from about 5% lemon juice and 95% water, and the acidity should be around 4.5% (about the same as lemon juice).  It’s a very simple recipe, but maybe the simplest recipe is the best recipe, right?

Sure, I think lemons are often used to add flavor to drinks, for example, some commercial mixers.  For example, you can make a simple lemon-lime soda in the kitchen by squeezing a lemon into Sprite.  Similarly, a simple vodka tonic uses a slice of lemon and lime.
