sue B 48 1,226 Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Thanks for that nonna my daughter has made it but I would like to see your recipe. The problem over here is getting lovely fresh unwaxed lemons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,895 Posted February 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 Sue recipes do vary. It's a few years since I made it and I can't find the original Limoncello one but the one I'm in the middle of making is as follows. This is what I made. 8 organic lemons 1 lt of 95 vol alcohol (or vodka) Peel the lemons very thinly avoiding getting any white part . Put them into a container ( glass) and pour alcohol over and leave 8-10 days shaking the jars every day. Put 600 gr sugar into a pan with a litre of water and bring to boil without actually boiling.,stir to dissolve sugar and leave to cool slightly. Then add jar of alcohol with lemon peels to pan stirring to distribute everything leave to cool again. Strain and filter and bottle it. Place in freezer. Hoping this will make 3 bottles. Sunday I'm making cream Limoncello. The process is the same but milk and cream is added. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,895 Posted February 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 Might as well continue with the cream one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
