San Pellegrino Limonata!


Once again we cover a San Pellegrino drink, the last being the delicious Aranciata(Orange flavored) soda.  So what is a Limonata?  Its Italian for Lemonade, but this version will taste much different than your typical lemonade.

As usual the packaging on these is excellent, featuring their trademark peel off lid protector.  Its an excellent feature that keeps the tops clean, and I wish more companies here would follow suit.  The Limonata has a delicious mix of tart and sweet flavor, with very mild carbonation that you'll notice as you take a swig.  The nice thing about this drink is that it also contains no artificial color and uses real sugar, and the difference is quite noticeable.  San Pellegrino Limonata has a much better taste also thanks to the usage of real Lemon juice(around 16-20% of the beverage is from juice).

These are easy to find and are as excellent as the Aranciata, although definitely more on the tart side.  If you'd like to try a mix between Lemonade and soda, you'll love this.
