Names
In the Arab world it is called “limon na-naa”.

In Israel, it is called limonana, a portmanteau of limon לימון 'lemon' and naʿnaʿ נענע 'mint'. The word was coined for an advertising campaign to promote bus advertising, in which various celebrities were shown promoting a drink called "Limonana", a blend of lemon and mint, which was in the end revealed to be fictitious.
