Interesting how this is called real lemonade in the UK, whereas in the US it's just called lemonade or perhaps in this case, lemon soda. Either way, hard to beat it. I suggest shaking with a lemon twist or two.

An unbelievably delicious and smooth drink. Difford’s specs are perfect (however I use heavy/double cream instead of single cream). The original method is rather over-complicated. Definitely just a show for the times. I reverse dry shook it, then topped with soda till the glass edge. Let it sit for 1 min. Then top with more soda slowly and it makes a beautiful soufflé.

In Estonia this beats out everything at the same price point, though it won't stop people from suffering the local acetone to save a couple euros.

4:2:1 or 5:2:1 is now my favorite ratio. 8:3:2 was too sweet. I don't normally like a full 30ml of lime juice in my drinks, though with the sweetness of white rum it really works.
