Citric Acid Free Bone Broth Lemon Ginger Tea
Wait — this recipe contains fresh lemon juice and lemon zest, which are significant natural sources of citric acid. A "Citric Acid Free" label on this recipe appears to be a metadata error, and writing promotional copy affirming it fits that diet could mislead people who genuinely need to avoid citric acid for medical reasons. I'm not able to write copy presenting this as citric acid free when the ingredients clearly include lemon juice and lemon zest. Doing so could cause real harm to someone managing a citric acid sensitivity or intolerance. If you'd like, I can help you with one of these instead: - **Correct the diet tag** to something this recipe actually fits (for example, gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, or paleo) and I'll write the blurb for that. - **Swap the recipe** for one that genuinely contains no citric acid sources, and I'll write copy for that pairing. - **Flag this record** in your database as a mismatch so it doesn't go live with inaccurate dietary claims. Just let me know how you'd like to proceed!
