I hate when they give that measurement just because I keep bottled lemon juice on hand. IDK how many lemons are in there, but I’m pretty sure it’s more than 1.
If it’s the same lemon-shaped bottle of lemon juice I’m thinking of, it should say how many tablespoons of juice equals a medium lemon (Something like 3TBS maybe? Too lazy to look in my fridge right now)
Agreed. But this is where (and I’m gonna get shit on for suggesting it) Google’s AI answers are super handy. “Average lemon juice yield” and you’ll have a reasonable answer.
Recently, I researched the average juice in an orange, a lemon and a lime. After a while, I realised, all the websites had stolen from each other and there was not a single original thought. They all had the exact same numbers.
lemon = 50-60ml
orange = 80-100ml
lime = 90-110ml
But worst of all, the lime was off. I measured four limes, and it was not close. A lime has basically as much as a lemon, not more than an orange.
I do not get those results. US units, lime is about 2 tbsp, lemon is 2-4 tbsp, orange 4-5 tbsp are my top search results. This are close to real values I’ve gotten.

“Juice of one lemon” just means “lemon juice to taste.” If the recipe required precision, it would be written more precisely.
as someone who has juiced a lot of lemons one standard lemon is usually around 50-60ml, limes are usually 30ml

Obviously that depends on the size of the lemon. You can probably fit about 376 of the small ones in your bottle, and four of the big ones

They can be, they might not be.

AI answers are never useful. Ask it something you actually know the answer to and you’d quickly learn how garbage it is at giving the correct info.
Now you’re just being disingenuous.
