Sims 2 vs Sims 3 vs Sims 4 - Lemonade Stand
Sims 2
In The Sims 2, Lemonade Stands were first added in the game with The Sims 2: Open for Business. Even though this lemonade stand can be used by adult Sims, it also enables children to make and sell lemonade and is one of the few ways child Sims can make money in the game.
Before making lemonade, you can set the price of one cup of lemonade. Every ingredient is present behind the stand. Sims will take the big mug from behind the counter, squeeze lemons from the bowl, add sugar, stir with a wooden spoon, then pour the lemonade in cups, making a mess. The stand also builds their cooking skill. Adult Sims will crouch when buying a lemonade. The seller will put their money in the piggy bank. After a while, the lemonade will spoil, so you'll need to clean it up and make another batch.
Sims 3
In The Sims 3, Lemonade Stands are a premium content available in the Sims 3 Store. Only children can tend to the stand. You need to first stock the stand with produce from their inventory to start. You can buy them at the supermarket, or grow them yourself. Unlike the Sims 2, in The Sims 3 you can make and sell all kinds of juices. After choosing an available flavor, the Sim will place the corresponding produce in a blender and squeeze the juice in a cup with ice. The customer will then put a coin in the jar and grab their drink. They will get a positive moodlet from drinking juice. You can't change the price of the beverages.
Sims can also get Psychiatric Help from the Child Tending the Lemonade Stand. The child will clean the stand with a sponge and while listening to the Sim in need. Then they will give them some kind of advice. The Sim will then gain a positive "Feeling Good About Me" moodlet that will last for 12h. Unfortunately, not a single Sim came to buy lemonade on their own.
Sims 4
The Sims 4 doesn't have a lemonade stand that's a separate object like in the previous Sims games. But you can definitely make something similar that I think it's worth mentioning.
If you have the tray of lemonade from Sims 4: Backyard Stuff and any of these sales tables you can sell lemonade. First, use the Summer Drink Tray, and mix and serve Iced Tea, or Lemonade. Now all you need to do is put the drinks in your inventory and stock any of the sales tables. Then just start the sale. In The Sims 4, this is a social event that lasts for a few hours
For these purposes I like using the food stand that came with The Sims 4: Home Chef Hustle. For various reasons. The vendor will stand in the middle of the table and will feel and look more enthusiastic, calling potential customers to come over. And because this one is a food related stand, Sims that buy lemonade will drink it right on the spot. Making it more interesting. A lot of Sims will come to buy lemonade. You can mark up the prices from 0% to 300% On the other sales tables, the Sim will stand near the table and won't do much. and on the other sales tables, Sims will buy lemonade and put it in their inventory.
