Coca-Cola is recalling more than 13,000 12-packs of its Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade after discovering a labeling mix-up.

The Minute Maid recall was first initiated on Sept. 10 and is ongoing, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The Coca-Cola recall affects around 13,153 cases of Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade that were incorrectly labeled as containing the zero sugar version, but actually have the full-sugar formula inside.

Coca-Cola voluntarily pulled the products, which had shipments going to stores in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio.

The FDA has not reported whether there have been any illnesses or injuries related to the Minute Maid recall. The Coca-Cola recall was classified as a Class II recall, which means “a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”

Meanwhile, in August, two consumers hit the Coca-Cola Company with a class action lawsuit claiming the beverages giant falsely markets its Minute Maid Fruit Punch as having no preservatives added.
