Earliest known poster for RobinsonAde.

RobinsonAde is a lemonade stand franchise inspired by the literary genre that takes its name from the 1719 novel Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe. The success of this novel spawned so many imitations that its name was used to define a genre, which is sometimes described simply as a "lemonade on a desert island story" or a "castaway citrus narrative".
