I've never tried making it with anything else. Ought to be possible, but would probably require some serious trial-and-error or a fine grasp of kitchen chemistry. I'd probably look a milk substitute and an oil substitute.

Yeah, that's a reasonable match for me.

You're just a smidge lighter than me, then. I don't have quite that blue undertone. I do tan a pale toasty gold though. And I start to sunburn in five minutes.

Could be.
