Article in French newspaper that's refreshingly sharp (8)

I believe the answer is:

lemonade

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'refreshingly sharp' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'article in french newspaper' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'a' (English indefinite article).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'french newspaper' becomes 'le monde' (I've seen this before).
'a' going inside 'lemonde' is 'LEMONADE'.

'that's' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lemonade that I've seen before include "Ale demon (anag)" , "(Usually) fizzy drink" , "Meal done? Have a drink" , "This should refresh" , "Sweet carbonated drink" .)
