Name of Georgian lemonade?
This summer I ate in a Georgian restaurant in Krakow, Poland. The food was really good, but especially tasty was the Georgian lemonade. I can't remember the name, but a friend of mine is going to travel near to Georgia too and I want to recommend this lemonade to him.
All I can remember is that it smelled very similar to sprite and it is in a violet bottle with Georgian letters on it. Does anybody know its name?

Answer 2
Giorgi already mentioned Zandukeli (?????????) but here's a photo of a bottle I drank in a local restaurant a few days ago.
The bottle was clear but the lemonade was violet. It didn't taste like Sprite though, it was grape flavour. In fact a local Georgian grape variety called saperavi (????????), which makes it quite unique.
Sorry it's blurry and not colour-accurate. I took it without flash and the lighting was quite dim.
