| Limoncello
(lee-mohn-CHEH-loh) – Limoncello is the generic name for an
Italian citrus-based lemon liqueur that is served well chilled in
the summer months. An absolute natural product acquired by the infusion
of lemon skins in pure alcohol. It has become Italy's second most
popular drink after Campari. It is wonderful as a palate cleanser
or as an after dinner drinks. Keep your bottles of Limoncello in
the freezer until ready to serve. The ingredients are simple and
few, and making a batch doesn't require much work, but you'll need
some time. In most recipes, Limoncello must steep for (80) eighty
days.

History: It has long
been a staple in the lemon-producing region along the Italian Amalfi
Coast in Capri and Sorrento. The Amalfi Coast is known for its citrus
groves and narrow winding roads. Authentic Limoncello is made from
Sorrento lemons, which come from the Amalfi Coast. Families in Italy
have passed down recipes for this for generations, as every Italian
family has their own Limoncello recipe.
