Leed was a fizzy (carbonated) lemonade soft drink that was popular in the middle and late 20th century. It was made and sold by a company called Coca-Cola Amatil.
What Was Leed?
Leed was a type of lemonade that had bubbles, just like many soft drinks you might know today. It was sold for many years, mainly in the middle and later parts of the 1900s.
Where Was Leed Sold?
This bubbly lemonade was made and sold by Coca-Cola Amatil. This company distributed Leed in several countries. You could find Leed in New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Fiji.
In the 1980s, Leed was a very common drink in stores across New Zealand. It was probably the most popular lemonade drink that Coca-Cola Amatil sold during its time.
Why Did Leed Disappear?
In 1984, Leed stopped being made. It was replaced by another well-known fizzy drink called Sprite. When Sprite took over, the recipe for the lemonade drink also changed.
