Few things signal summer's arrival quite like lemonade, and Island Way reimagined the drink beloved by all ages as cooling, juicy Lemonade Bites that pack all of the tart-sweet, refreshing magic into little mouthfuls. Available in a trio of craveable varieties—Classic Lemonade, Strawberry Lemonade and Watermelon Lemonade—Island Way's Lemonade Bites feature real lemon pieces with a fruit-flavored coating. Altogether, the frozen snack experience starts sweet and finishes sour, and keeps the ingredient list simple with familiar additions like coconut oil, pure cane sugar, natural lemon flavor, fruit and vegetable concentrate, and a few others.
Fresh from the freezer, these Lemonade Bites provide a refreshing escape that offers the essence of lemonade, but not from a can or a pitcher.
