yeah I thought about getting real lemons, eh. I bought a couple lemons a few months ago and you peel that and eat some of it like an orange it'll wake ya up. But I betcha like you said, some of this stuff has to do with the "peel". I wonder if they use some of the peel but in the ingredients they just say "natural flavour".
The key to good lemonade is saccharine.
Soak lemon peel/zest in sugar, they'll release their oils and make a sweetly tangy syrup, which you'd then add to the squeezed juice.

Probably, yep. But in mass quantities like that they probably just grind up the entire fruit and strain it.
But that process of the sugars drawing out the oils is the ticket to, for instance, making a neighborhood hit lemonade stand with your kids.
