Limoncello Recipe **FOR ADULTS**

12 Lemons
1- 750 ML Bottle of Everclear or any grain alcohol

Carefully peel lemons with a potato peeler so as not to get any pith (You can also grate the lemons with a zester.. I find it comes out better that way after making a few batches)
add peels to grain alcohol, cover and let sit in a cool dark place for about 30 days

(simple syrup)
3 cups water
2 1/2 cups of sugar
Stir and bring to boil lower flame and let simmer for about 15 minutes, stir occasionally
cool before adding to alcohol

Put in freezer and serve very chilled!!

Is your large storage container made of glass? Can you use a plastic container if you don't have a glass one?

[PrincessDiana161]

@seattwa Sure :)

Great video. I agree homemade gifts mean more especally when its the hooch. I love the idea of the neat bottles too! Keep the videos coming!

Our friend from Napoli would not give us his recipe, said it was bad luck and would ruin his limoncello. Took me quite a few batches to figure it out, almost identical to yours, thanks for sharing. BTW Grain comes as 151 or 190 proof in California, we dilute to 35-42 percent by weight (75 proof)

Thank you for such a quick response !!!

I finally found two large glass jars with locking lids. Is your limoncello sweet? I don't like mine overly sweet. My (first ever) batch will be ready for the simple syrup next week. I can't wait! Thanks for the reply, and hope to hear from you guys again!
