Our ingredients are not only 100% organically grown, but also come from fair trade. That way, we’re not only supporting organic farming, but also sustainable practices where everyone is paid a fair wage for their work. On top of that, 5 cent / pence for every bottle we sell goes to support the Lemonaid & ChariTea Foundation, which funds social projects in the regions where our ingredients are grown. You can find more about this under “Projects” on this site, or in our various blog articles.
You can buy Lemonaid in selected cafes, restaurants and health food shops or if you are UK based online on drinkinghelps.co.uk. Trade customers and other resellers interested in stocking the drinks can contact us on sales@lemonaid.de for exclusive trade pricing.
No! Lemonaid is a project started by friends. We’re independent and do what we do because we love it – that will never change. We got together to found Lemonaid because we wanted to make our own small contribution to a better, fairer world. We just didn’t think that anyone was making truly delicious lemonade that we’d actually want to drink. So, we decided to put our money (and time) where our mouths were, and started Lemonaid. Today a few more people work at our little company. They help us with everything from the accounts to the purchase of raw materials, they look after our customers and take Lemonaid on tour around the festival circuit. We also regularly take on interns who want to get to know the effervescent world of soft drinks, and St Pauli, Hamburg’s most vibrant district.
Oh yes – all our raw materials come from organic farms. Every last drop and grain. That’s why we can proudly display the official EU organic certification. Some of our ingredients are even Demeter-certified on top of that, for example, our blood orange juice.
We source our ingredients from small farmers around the world. Some of the cooperatives bear the official FLO Fairtrade seal, others are still in the certification process. All of them are not only ecologically but also socially sustainable. This means, the farmers of our ingredients get a better price for their products, so they can start planning long-term and live well off their land. Regularly we pack our bags and see for ourselves how things are going.
Yes, all our soft drinks are vegan. They contain nothing but selected organic raw materials. To be precise: best juice, a little bit of cane sugar and water. That’s it. No artificial scents, flavours, or preservatives of any kind. Oh, and we don’t use any animal products to filter our drinks either.
Depending on the kind of lemonade, each bottle contains between 5% and 7% organic cane sugar. Compared to other soft drinks this is remarkably little. We want the fruity taste of Lemonaid to be preserved.

There are many ways you can support what we are doing. First of all, by buying one of our lemonades when you’re out and about. That way, you’re not only supporting fair trade but also social projects in the regions where our ingredients are grown. There might be places in your town, your university, or on your travels; cafes, bars and delis that don’t know about Lemonaid yet. Do them a favour and give them a nudge in the right direction! Another way would be to simply become a fan of our facebook and Instagram channel. This way we can keep you up to date with what's happening with us.
Sure! There is plenty of work to do in our company. You will find current job offers in our "Jobs" section. General inquiries and speculative application letters can be send to jobs@lemonaid.de - or give us a call.
Yes, this is Lemonaid´s sister.
ChariTea is real brewed iced tea. Everything just as fair and as organically grown as the products in our lemonades. Again 5 cents / pence per bottle goes to the Lemonaid & ChariTea Foundation.
Retailers can find information on ChariTea here on our website in the section "Trade & Press".
For all tea-lovers who want to know the details, we have set up www.charitea.com
Fat, protein and salt occur naturally in tiny amounts in the various fruits (for example, in the oil from their shells). These fats are saturated fats, so that explains why they’re mentioned. The law says we have to mention saturated fat specifically, but the amounts we’re talking about here aren’t relevant from a nutritional point of view. That’s why they aren’t mentioned in the tables themselves.
