One of the great mysteries - pink lemonade

**Spunky** · 10-01-2005, 11:43 AM

It's all in the food coloring

**Sarah_Jayne** · 10-01-2005, 11:49 AM

but it has a bit different taste

**Tofu** · 10-01-2005, 11:49 AM

you cheeky monkey.... :P

**Babagirls** · 10-01-2005, 11:53 AM

its cranberry juice that gives it the pink color.

**adultchica** · 10-01-2005, 11:53 AM

Sarah....very thought provoking question. Never really thought about it. I will always wonder now when I drink pink lemonade...............

maybe we should yahoo it instead of google it

lol..well..I figured we could go to the 'people' for an answer..google didn't help.

**Sly** · 10-01-2005, 11:57 AM

Probably a bit of cranberry.

Have you ever had blackberry lemonade? Oh my God is it delicious. Raspberry is really good, too. Wasn't overly fond of kiwi.

I've had Raspberry but not blackberry. Oddly, blackberry isn't really a flavour I see much over here (grape even less!) but instead we have blackcurrant which I never saw in the States.

some said strawberry...but cranberry would explain the sharpness

**Manowar** · 10-01-2005, 12:02 PM

red food colouring or grenadine syrup

You can make it yourself fresh if you have the fruit. I've never seen it aside from fresh, raspberry is fairly easy to find though. I get the blackberry at the bagel shop down the road.

Always try Wikipedia first

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_lemonade

"A pink lemonade variation can be produced by adding red food coloring or grenadine syrup. Traditionally, beet juice provided the pink color; so little is needed that the flavor of the drink remains largely unchanged. "

**After Shock Media** · 10-01-2005, 12:35 PM

Forgetting the recipes you may find online.
Pink lemonade is made with the addition of grape juice.
Want to make double sure, visit minutemaid.com and check the ingrediant list.

I have often wondered if this is where my socks go...looks like others wonder it too.

**Sarah_Jayne** · 10-01-2005, 02:46 PM

oddly if you order a lemonade in the UK you will get a carbonated lemon soda like sprite

**XAKEP** · 10-01-2005, 02:50 PM

I always thought most lemonade was carbonated in the UK and a few places in Europe.

**Furious_Female** · 10-01-2005, 03:05 PM

I've also read the ingredients on pink lemonade that said grapefruit juice. I <3 pink lemonade!!

**Sarah_Jayne** · 10-01-2005, 03:06 PM

Yeah..you have to hunt for what Americans would consider lemonade but you can find it. It is usually called 'still lemonade'.

**XAKEP** · 10-01-2005, 03:09 PM

The millions of starving people in Africa thank you for your contribution to society.

Soviet Communist Scums National Anthem

I really feel sorry that the Nazis didn't have the time to destroy all the communist scums..

But I am sure that in the future, you country will finally be destroyed by a nuclear war.

**NoCarrier** · 10-01-2005, 03:29 PM

Let's kill some communist scums!

**The Heron** · 10-01-2005, 05:14 PM

**BigBen** · 10-01-2005, 10:03 PM

Don't know the answer.... But In & Out has the best pink lemonade.

**Sarah_Jayne** · 10-02-2005, 04:59 AM

You know, sometimes you just don't know how a thread is going to go.
