Ingredients

  • 750 ml Everclear Grain Alcohol, 75% or Vodka
  • 750 ml Water
  • 500 g Cane sugar
  • 6 pcs Lemon

Method

  1. Peel the lemons. We will need the peels. Use apple peeler but take care that the white part would not be in your zest mix.
  2. Take a 5-litre jar and add the alcohol and the lemon peels. Close. Keep in a dark place for about 2 weeks. Don't open the jar and shake it up every day.
  3. In a 3-litre pan, heat up sugar with the water. Let the sugar mix fully. Let the mixture cool down.
  4. Add the sugar-water mix to your lemon-alcohol slowly. Close again and let it rest for about a month in a dark place. Shaking every day.
  5. When you think it's ready, drain the mix from the peels and portion the limoncello into the bottles.
  6. Decorate the bottles.
