Lemon
The juice of the lemon is about 5% to 6% citric acid, with a pH of around 2.2, giving it a sour taste.
Amma
Amla (gooseberries) are rich in Vitamin C, which is what causes the sour flavor. The molecular geometry of Vitamin C is similar to Sucrose/Glucose/Fructose and so when diluted, it activates similar receptors in the tongue.
Orange
This also contains citric acid.
