Leed was a carbonated lemonade drink sold in some parts of the world during the middle to late 20th century.

It was produced and distributed by Coca-Cola Amatil only in New Zealand and Australia.

Leed was one of the staple drinks among New Zealand retailers during the 1980s and was probably the most common lemonade drink distributed by Coca-Cola Amatil during its life.

In the mid to late 1980s, Leed was discontinued and replaced by the more widely known Sprite brand. Accompanying this change was also a new recipe.

Leed memorabilia continues to circulate through auction websites, but is difficult to obtain in any large quantity.
