Irish Thought for August 2...

Irish Drink

Brown Lemonade

Commonly sold in Northern Ireland under the brand names Cantrell & Cochrane (C&C) and Maine, brown lemonade drinkers report a slight difference in taste from white lemonade, although brown lemonade's appearance is caused by brown food coloring.  Legendarily, brown lemonade was created to give shipbuilders in Belfast something masculine to drink when imbibing ale was banned from the shipyards and drinking white lemonade was too feminine.
