FAQ:
Q: Can I use bottled lemon juice?
A: Fresh lemon juice is best for flavor, but bottled will work in a pinch. Just avoid anything with additives.
Q: Why is turmeric added?
A: Just a pinch gives that classic yellow color—totally optional and flavorless in small amounts.
Q: Can I use another thickener?
