Here in India, or there in India, "lemon juice" and "lemonade" are different things. The nearest expression from accepted Indian English would be "sweet lime" for "musammi", but the qualifier sweet is always there.
Of course, many people speak and write
bad English, Indians and others, but that is a different matter. Presumably someone flaming "a Bengali chap" airline pilot's English is not among them.
Let me be absolutely clear that I am not criticizing OP for using "bad" English. After all, this is an Internet forum and there is no bad English here---as long as we speak for ourselves and do not put words in someone else's mouth to make them look ridiculous.
