Recall Details

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the recall on September 10, 2024, and has since upgraded the risk level to Class II. This means that consuming the mislabeled product may cause temporary or medically reversible health consequences. The mislabeling affects cartons distributed to retailers in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio. Consumers who have purchased Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade in these states are urged to check the packaging for the lot code and expiration date.
