Well, it seems Coca-Cola has sweetly sinned after more than 13,000 cases of its Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade were mislabelled and actually contained the ingredient they claimed it didn’t have.

Last month, 13,152 cases of the beverage were recalled due to the labelling error.

According to an alert put out by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States, the lemonade had 40 grams of sugar per 12-ounce can, which is the same as Minute Maid’s regular full-sugar lemonade.

The FDA said the mislabelled product was shipped to stores in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. Each case contained a dozen cans and has been removed from store shelves.

The Minute Maid drink was classified as a Class II recall, which “involves a health hazard situation where there is a remote probability of adverse health consequences from use of the product.”

The FDA asked consumers who purchased the sugar-loaded drinks to toss them or return them for a full refund.
