Black Cherry Lemonade, 12 FZ
What You Should Know
You'd spot this chilled in the grab‑and‑go cooler or on a sunny grocery run—marketed as a honey‑sweetened black cherry lemonade for picnics, barbecues, or a nostalgic midday treat. The branding feels wholesome and summery, but the ingredient list (cane sugar, juice concentrates, natural flavors and vegetable color) and uniform sweetness point to a highly processed, ready-to-drink product. That processing delivers consistent sweetness, color and shelf stability—traits common to ultra-processed beverages.

Common Questions about Black Cherry Lemonade, 12 FZ
Well, 'healthy' can mean different things depending on what you're looking for! This drink is low in calories and has no artificial additives, which is a plus. However, it does have 28 grams of sugar per can, so if you're watching your sugar intake, you might want to enjoy this as an occasional treat rather than a daily staple.
