Not being one who measures such things, probably half a teaspoon to half a pint of cream. However, add the juice slowly, a few drops at a time and stir it in. If you add too much, the cream will curdle, so it pays to hold a little back to add into the mixture if it goes wrong, so that you can recover the situation.

My tried and tested receipe for soured cream is 1 teaspoon per 5 fl.oz cream (either double or single depending on how creamy you want it)leaving the mix for half an hour or so for it to thicken.
As Jan said yoghurt can be mixed in equal qantities with either single or double cream.

Long time ago I asked a Greek lady what was the Greek word for Sour Cream, so I could ask for it in the super market.
She gave me the word and indeed, when I asked for it in the supermarket I got....... bath soap.
The kind lady had given me the Greek word for Shower Cream. Greeks don't pronounce the 'h' as that doesn't exist in their alphabet. It sounds exactly like Sour Cream then.
