One answer: The lemon has long been associated with witchcraft. This saying is a reference to a dark period in American history when it was acceptable to test whether or not a woman was a witch by repeatedly dunking her in a pool of water. If the woman survived, that proved that God was watching over her. If she drowned, it meant that she was a witch. The townspeople would then drink the water to gain the witch's strength.
Second answer: There is no mystical aspect to this aphorism, which was popularized in the 1970s. "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Normally a lemon is sour but if you add some sugar and water to it you can get lemonade. So, the advice means to use even a bad event to create something positive in your life.
