I can appreciate that you consider this not to be the correct answer - the problem is that this is rather like trying to translate Iron Brew into Dutch - there is no real equivalent - so probably what I'll do is keep the name as Champagnepils and in brackets put (tastes like Dandelion & Burdock) as that's most likely the best approach. Many D&Bs don't have any real plant ingredients being made entirely from artificial flavourings

Sorry to be the party pooper here, but have you read the ingredients on cp and D&B? No natural ingredients in cp at all, just sweetened, carbonated, artificially flavoured water. While D&B has very specific D&B additives, see above list of ingredients.

There are no two ways about it - this stuff is Dandelion & Burdock! If you can get some more English (D&B drinking) natives to respond I am sure they will confirm this!

Won't champagnepils (pronounce that in English) sound odd to an English reader who will think pills? How about 'bubblegum lemonade', not even bubblegum-flavoured lemonade which sounds too prosaic.

Ingredients of D&B:Carbonated water, apple juice concentrate, colour: caramel, citric acid, natural dandelion & burdock flavouring (0.2%), dandelion extract (0.1%), burdock root extract (0.1%)

The trouble is that this is part of a list of drinks which also include things shandy coke fanta 7-up spa.
If I keep champagnepils (which I'm very inclined to do) then the description has to be very short on the line of non-alcoholic ..... lemonade
Does Dandelion and Burdock taste the same or only somewhat (i've never tried it)?

Perhaps you'd be best off keeping champagnepils and just adding an explanation in brackets.

This is the sugary, fizzy drink that kids sometimes drink - it tastes sort of like bubble gum - kids seem to love it (I think it's the name that appeals) made by several Dutch drinks manufacturers and it has absolutely no alcohol in it!
