The Family Kitchen - StumbleUpon

It’s refreshing, delicious and so very good on it’s own, simple and uncomplicated. But every once in a while, I like to change it up. Here I have added some fresh strawberries to my favorite lemonade recipe. Limoncello Recipe. Limoncello While searching for a good recipe for Limoncello, I found a lot of conflicting information.

Limoncello Recipe

Some recipes use vodka, others use grain alcohol (without specifying the potency, which varies) and others even used rum! The alcohol-to-water-to-sugar ratios also varied widely, and it made me wonder if people had typos in the recipes, or were just posting a recipe they had never even tasted! So I started with the premise that grain alcohol will extract the most lemon oil and flavor from lemon zest. Then I adjusted the water and sugar levels until I had a recipe where I liked the potency and the sweetness balances the tartness of the lemon.
