As the weather heats up for summer, the lemonade market also is heating up to quench consumers’ thirsts in new ways. The sweet, lemony beverage often is considered one of the classic beverages of summer, inspiring kids’ lemonade stands and afternoons on the patio drinking lemonade. However, this beverage continues to prove that it’s more than a classic drink by evolving to keep up with the times.
For example, lemonade has kept up with flavor trends over the years, mixing with other fruit flavors like strawberry, raspberry or watermelon and even blending with iced tea, another summer afternoon beverage.
