It is important to note that hemlock juice is extremely dangerous and should never be prepared or consumed.
Hemlock juice can vary in color depending on factors such as the part of the plant used and the stage of growth. It may range from clear to pale yellow or greenish-yellow. However, hemlock is a highly toxic plant, so it is important to avoid handling or consuming any part of it.
