(non-alcoholic) beverages
Explanation:
Так здесь перечислены напитки, различные по вкусовым добавкам, их нельзя называть Lemonade, исходя из определения:

Lemonade is any of various sweetened beverages found throughout the world, all characterized by lemon flavor.

Поэтому лучше "beverages" или "non-alcoholic beverages". Это понятно любому англоязычному человеку.

Всем спасибо! I'm giving the points to Tatiana as she seems to be the only one here who's gone to the trouble of reading my question (Irina's answer would work for most North American English speakers, whereas "lemonade" misses the whole point of the question).

Sodas (US)


Explanation:
https://thestayathomechef.com/homemade-lemonade-recipe/

Вот что такое лимонад для американцев - никогда газированный, ни домашний, ни в бутылках.

https://nourishedkitchen.com/raspberry-ginger-soda/

Soda - всегда газированный, и даже для рецептов домашнего приготовления в качестве ингредиента будет бутилированный газированный напиток
