What do you understand by "lemonade from lemons"?

Of course, lemonade is made from lemons. Where would it come from? Oranges?

Fruit juices can also come out of chemical laboratories.

It is amazing that so many tastes can be synthesized chemically. I wonder what foods cannot ever be made in a laboratory...?

It made me think about the expression, "When life hands you a lemon, make lemonade out of it." That means try to turn a bad experience into a good one.

I thought it meant 'add sugar', because lemonade is only tasty because of the sugar, right? ;)

I was just thinking about this this morning. I was thinking about the move The Adams Family and the part where Wednesday and Pugsly were trying to sell lemonade (obviously made with chemicals) and the girl scout asks if their lemonade was made from real lemons. And they asked her if the girl scout cookies were made from real girl scouts. One has to wonder sometimes!
