The story

The story behind Lemon X

Lemon X started in 1962 by putting the first commercial liquid sweet & sour mix in front of Manhattan bartenders, and the brand has been a back bar fixture ever since. Production roots ran through Huntington Station, New York and Frostproof, Florida. Highlander Partners acquired the company in 2015 and folded it into the Bevolution Group.

These are non-alcoholic, ready-to-use mixers built for volume and consistency: filtered water, citric acid, juice from concentrate, and a sweetener base of high fructose corn syrup and cane sugar, with real agave nectar in the margarita line. No refrigeration needed before opening. That is why a busy bar trusts Lemon X to taste the same at 6 p.m. and midnight.

Buying guidance

Which Lemon X is right for you?

Every Lemon X bottle on our shelf is 1 liter at $5.99, which is the whole argument for keeping two or three in the pantry. Compare that to squeezing a dozen limes on a Saturday. The Sweet & Sour and Golden Margarita move fastest, so call (631) 343-7200 before a party and we will confirm stock. Buy Lemon X online for curbside pickup in Commack, or take free local delivery on orders over $250.

Good to know

Lemon X questions, answered

What is Lemon X?
Lemon X is an American non-alcoholic cocktail mixer brand founded in 1962. It built its name on the first commercial liquid sweet & sour mix and now makes margarita, bloody mary, grenadine and syrup lines for bars and home use.
Who owns Lemon X?
Highlander Partners acquired Lemon X in 2015 and consolidated it into the Bevolution Group. Production roots ran through Huntington Station, New York and Frostproof, Florida. Ownership has since shifted again within a larger food group portfolio.
Does Lemon X contain alcohol?
No. Every Lemon X mixer is non-alcoholic at 0 percent ABV, which is why it is sold as a mixer rather than a spirit. You add the tequila, whiskey or vodka yourself, usually at a 3 to 1 or 2 to 1 ratio.
How do you use Lemon X Sweet & Sour mix?
Combine roughly three parts mixer to one part spirit over ice, then shake. It is the base for whiskey sours, lemon drops, Long Island iced teas and margaritas. The concentrated bag in box syrup instead dilutes four parts water to one part syrup.
Can I get Lemon X delivered or pick it up locally?
Yes. We offer same-day or next-day delivery across Nassau and Suffolk, free curbside pickup in Commack, and free local delivery on orders over $250. Call (631) 343-7200 to confirm stock before you drive over.
