Some lemonades especially lower-calorie choices, fall pretty far from the tree. Consumer tasters tried 16 including eight already to drink, four powdered, and four from recipes. All are results can be seen in the AUG 2012 issue. Within catagories, lemonades are in order of taste. Results: IF LIFE HANDS YOU LEMONS,(or not) MAKE YOUR OWN LEMONADE!
