Lemon juice is acidic and pure water is neutral but then why is 'lemon water' alkaline?
Lemon water is still acidic, you can easily test this yourself with a basic pH meter (they don't cost much). As the lemon water becomes more dilute it will approach the pH of the water. Tap water is commonly slightly alkaline (pH 7.4 or so) and so at very high dilutions the lemon water will exceed 7, but then there really isn't much lemon in it by that stage. pH < 7 is acidic, pH > 7 is alkaline.

Foods such as orange juice and lemon juice are acidic in their natural state but turn alkaline after they have been metabolized in the body. As such, for dietetic purposes they are usually considered to be alkaline forming foods despite being acidic prior to consumption. Most fruits are alkaline except a few that include cranberries, plums and prunes. These fruits are classified as acidic because they contain acids the body can't metabolize.
