-ade

-ade is a suffix used for a fruit- (typically citrus) flavored beverage. These drinks may be carbonated or non-carbonated. Widespread examples include lemonade, cherryade, limeade, shandyade and orangeade. It is often mixed with water.

The suffix is more formally used to denote an action, or a product of an action, for example with the word "blockade" meaning a physical barrier that was created with the intention of blocking.
