S'ok Star....no worries..you didnt slip into the twilight zone...


Paeroa is well known for its mineral springs, which provided the water used in a local soft drink which has become a New Zealand favourite, Lemon & Paeroa.
Lemon & Paeroa (or L&P) has a playful slogan "World Famous in New Zealand" and perhaps the largest soft drink statue in the world is in the town of Paeroa. (L&P is now owned by Coca Cola)

Lemon & Paeroa is a soft drink like lemonade, I think it comes from Kiwi Land.. or does it..!!

Hmmm.. The greatest philosophical question of all time.. Is it Tissues or Kleenex..???!!

It's the war fo words between language and brand.. The acadmics -v- the corporates.

I guess the simple answer is if you say lemonade then you could be implying one of a wide range of products, 7up, Fanta, Schwepps.. etc.. which would, in the case of a normal 7/11 operator, be so confusing that it may result in their resignation for work stress related issues..

Blame it all on producer and consumer demands.. the choice are already endless and they are already working on making the endlessness even wider...

I am surprised that the original question in this thread didn't read like: "anyone knows Lemon & Paeroa 600ml Green Twist-top plastic short neck bottle..??"

L&P is not like lemonade it does not have a normal flavour.

it is from kiwi land New Zealand

I was in paeroa yesturday they have a big bottle of it.

I spend too much time in Paeroa these days.

I think it is nice
i am going to star mart to get some now i think it is 1am so maybe time for bed

Ok, Ok...I guess I just need to get on a plane and fly to New Zealand get a bottle of Lemon and Paeroa, then on to the UK and Amandas for some of those sprouts everyone is talking about...I'll stop off in Jamaica for some of Beezz chocolates and on my way home I'll stop at Vasilies for some truffles and when I get home, I'll top it all off with some rocky mountain oysters!! How's that for making the rounds!! lol

Hey Cindy...I'm with you...Pick me up first and we'll munch on chocolates on the way to all these places.....and end at your place for the 'oysters'...do you think all the folks know what Rocky Mountain Oysters are?....lol...hmmm

Bee knows I'd prefer a TING wit me oysters!
Not the land ones, tho....thems for the starvin' Marvins and tourists!

I suspect not and less would have tried them, lol

Yeah...TING is the best and it'll give your Paeora a run for it's money anyday...lol...you know it Vasili

Well I am from Auckland New Zealand too and Lemon and Paeroa is nothing like you have tasted. Not like lemonade either. However, it is very nice and one of my favourite drinks. Goes well with southern comfort.
