Tart yellow beverage

Lemon squash is a British soft drink made from lemon juice, sugar, and water—essentially concentrated lemonade sold in bottles to be diluted before drinking.

You add water or soda water to taste: Would you like some lemon squash?

The term is uncommon in American English, where similar products might be called lemon cordial or lemon concentrate.
