Favor for citrus themed wedding

Our wedding has a citrus theme to it. I wanted a favor that tied into this, and originally wanted to do Lemon Curd in little jars (I love making jam!) But the cost of the jars and the time committment seems like a lot. So I was thinking about packets of lemonade mix, for guests to mix at home. My BM thought a cute saying on the label would be nice, and she suggested "How sweet it is!" Anyone else have any other suggestions for taglines, or just another citrus themed favor all together?

Thanks ladies :)

    Maybe Lemonheads or other citrus candies.  I can't remember what they're called, but I like the soft jelly-like lemon or orange flavored candy with sugar on the outside.  Those would be cute in a mylar bag with a yellow or orange ribbon.

    I know the candy kiki baby is thinking about and I agree it would look really nice!  They look like lemon or orange or lime wedges---not quite the fat version that Brach's puts out----these are thinner and quite pretty looking. 

    If you google lemonade mix flavors, you come across all sorts of cute expressions such as, "Blended with love", "Nothing sweeter than love", "The perfect mix", "The perfect blend", "Perfectly blended", "Main squeeze"......I am sure you could even make a play on words with orange....Orange you glad you joined us......if you really want to get cheesy!!

    Yellow, orange, and lime jelly belly's in see-through packaging or even in small votive vases could look pretty as well.  Cookies either with a citrus flavor or cut in the shape of a citrus fruit would look good and taste great.  There are powdered sugar crescent looking cookies that come in key lime and lemon flavors.

    I like the citrus flavored candy idea best. Edible favors that people can enjoy while they are at their table seem to be the most popular.

    I agree that a favor that people can enjoy right at the table would be ideal. I'll have to look into buying lemon candy in bulk. Hopefully it doesn't end up cositng too much. The thing about the lemonade mix is that it costs about $.60 per peson, at the most.  If I do end up doing this it's not a horrible favor, right?

    I think the lemonade would be a cute idea.  It wouldn't be something that people could use right away but it would definitely fit...and be cute!

     We got mini jars of mango jams and mango fruit butter.  We also saved money and ordered the label ourselves. I got favors from http://www.abundanceyeah.etsy.com. This woman was easy to work with.
