veggis og bris med lime

Norwegian to English Other Food & Drink
A survey response by a Norwegian in a survey about general soft drink habits (what they drink, when, what they buy, etc.), where I have very little context. Are 'veggis' or 'bris' brands? This particular respondent has stated elsewhere (repeatedly) that they like lemon flavoured drinks - so I wondered whether this referred to something with lime...

Thanks Yes, that's not a bad suggestion - I included a note highlighting the vague ambiguity of the whole thing - that's what happens when you work with the public!

Sparkling water I think this has to do with lime. 'Bris' is probably Farris Bris, a brand of sparkling water. Farris Bris has a lime flavour. "Veggis" is probably short for someone who is vegetarian.

Vegetarian and Farris Bris Lemon/Lemongrass

Veggis is slang for vegetarian here in Norway :-). Farris Bris ("soda"with low intensity of CO2) comes in Lemon/Lemongrass flavour (ordinary Farris comes in Lime flavour).
