Lemon, Lime and Bitters (abbreviation: LLB) is a mixed drink that is often considered to be non-alcoholic cocktail (or mocktail) due to its very low alcohol content. It is made with lemonade (British Commonwealth definition. US term is "Lemon Lime Soda" or Sprite), lime juice or cordial, and a bitters. Over 50 million LLB are consumed each year in Australia alone.[1]
