Limoncello Recipe"By the way, what is limoncello?"
This limoncello recipe is basically a lemon cordial
or a lemon liqueur. And we as Italians we call this limoncello. It's one of our popular Italian drinks.
Ok, so now you're thinking which is it - a cordial or a liqueur or limoncello? Let's get a common ground here. It's all in the *word*. More than 30% of my readers are OUTSIDE of the US. So to clarify: Make sense? So if you are looking for a lemon cordial or lemon liqueur recipe you have come to the right place! This limoncello recipe is easy to make. Only 3 ingredients - and all recipes are basically the same. I had my brother-in-law email me his copy of the recipe since he made these for us this past New Year's Eve. What Do I Need To Make Limoncello?That's IT! NOTHING ELSE - Super duper easy, right?
Well kinda. The ingredients are the easy part. Waiting for it to
be ready is the tougher part.
Limoncello RecipeIngredients * 6 lemons * 1 bottle(s) (750-ml) 100-proof vodka * 1 3/4 cup(s) sugar Procedure * Remove peel from lemons With vegetable peeler. * Refrigerate peeled lemons for juice. Or see my italian dessert recipes listed below that use fresh lemon juice! * Pour vodka into 8-cup measuring cup or large glass bowl and add lemon peels. * Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 1 week. * After 1 week, line sieve with paper towel and place over another large bowl. * Pour vodka mixture through sieve; throw away the lemon peels. Or do it like my brother-in-law - pick out the rinds with a fork. * Mix sugar with 3 1/4 cups water and put in a saucepan. * Boil 2 minutes stirring constantly. * Remove and cool completely. * Add cool syrup to vodka mixture. . How do I store limoncello?
Pour into bottles with tight-fitting stoppers or lids. You don't NEED to refrigerate cordials. But they are best served very cold.
My bro-in-law keeps his batch in the freezer where it can keep indefinitely.
Or until I come over to
visit again!

it's flavor from the lemon peel. Just make sure you get 100 proof.
Is this limoncello recipe the same as a lemon cordial?Yup! Identical thing. It may be called a liqueur too. In Italy
limoncello is made from the lemons off of the Aldafi coast - and it is commonly called "limoncello".
