From what I read the juice is the same color as regular lemons; I'd rather it be pink. I read up on pink lemonade history; I hope the story of the vat of red dye was never true. Yes, the fruit is supposedly variegated until ripe then it's plain old yellow (this is a Eureka sport) with a pink blush. But even if you add food coloring to achieve the pink drink, a slice of one on the glass rim or floating in a punch bowl would be really neat.
