R. White's lemonade originated in which country?

R. White’s lemonade originated in the United Kingdom.

Robert and Mary White began producing the drink in 1845 in Camberwell, south London. The business started with home-brewed ginger beer sold from a wheelbarrow, before the White family developed a larger soft-drinks operation focused on lemonade. The wheelbarrow remains part of the brand’s visual heritage.

By the late 1860s, the company had five production units and 16 depots across London and the Midlands. In 1891, the White family took over H. D. Rawlings Ltd., a merger that helped create the biggest soft-drinks company in London and southeast England. R. White & Sons Ltd. was incorporated in 1894.

The brand later passed through several corporate owners. Whitbread acquired it in 1969, and its soft-drinks business eventually became part of Britvic. Today, R. White’s is a British carbonated-lemonade brand produced and sold in the United Kingdom by Britvic. The answer refers to the brand’s origin, not necessarily every country where it is now bottled, distributed, or sold.
