LIMONCELLO (LEMONCELLO, LIMONCELLA)



Limoncello (Lemoncello, Limoncella) image

Limoncello, Sicily's signature liqueur, is easy to make at home. Perfect for those hot summer days... a cool explosion of the senses. This is the best Limoncello recipe I have come across, I think the secret that makes this one stand apart is the addition of the zest from one lime. Please use organic lemons and limes for this recipe. If they are not organic soak them in water for 1/2 an hour or so before zesting. Also it has been pointed out that it is best to use under-ripe fruit. Once made... there are so many uses; spiking lemonade, flavoring cocktails and splashing onto ice cream, poundcake or fresh fruit. You can substitute the peel of 15 limes for the lemon peel. Total time: 30 minutes, plus at least 4 weeks infusing time

Time 30m

Yield 9 1/4 Cups, 74 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 lemons (thick skinned, meyers, Amalfi, Lisbon, Femminello St. Teresa..)
1 lime (thick skinned)
2 (750 ml) bottles 100 proof vodka, divided
2 cups water
2 cups granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Remove yellow part of lemon peel either with micro-plane or sharp peeler. If any pith remains on the back of a strip of peel, scrape it off.
  • Place peels in a large jar with screw-top lid or sealed with clamps and cover with one bottle of vodka.
  • Leave mixture to mellow for 2 weeks in a dark place.
  • After mixture sets, combine sugar and water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar has dissolved. Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature (This is very important- if the sugar syrup is still warm the limoncello will result cloudy instead of limpid).
  • Using a coffee filter or fine sieve, strain the vodka from the peels and mix it with the remaining bottle of vodka and the syrup. Put the liqueur in bottles, seal tightly (cork or screw-top lid) and let the components marry, in a dark place, for at least 10 days before using.
  • For drinking straight, store the Limoncello in the freezer.

20 lemons, zested, or more to taste
1-gallon jug
7 cups water

HOMEMADE LIMONCELLO



HOMEMADE LIMONCELLO image

Categories     Fruit     Dessert

Yield 2 bottles

Number Of Ingredients 6

15 lemons*
2 bottles (750 ml) 100-proof vodka**
4 cups sugar
5 cups water
Choose thick-skinned lemons because they are easier to zest.
** Use 100-proof vodka, which has less flavor than a lower proof one. Also the high alcohol level will ensure that the limoncello will not turn to ice in the freezer.

Steps:

  • Wash the lemons with a vegetable brush and hot water to remove any reside of pesticides or wax; pat the lemons dry. Carefully zest the lemons with a zester or vegetable peeler so there is no white pith on the peel. NOTE: Use only the outer part of the rind. The pith, the white part underneath the rind, is too bitter and would spoil your limoncello. Check out my web page on How to Zest. Step One: In a large glass jar (1-gallon jar), add one bottle of vodka; add the lemon zest as it is zested. Cover the jar and let sit at room temperature for at least (10) ten days and up to (40) days in a cool dark place. The longer it rests, the better the taste will be. (There is no need to stir - all you have to do is wait.) As the limoncello sits, the vodka slowly take on the flavor and rich yellow color of the lemon zest. Step Two: In a large saucepan, combine the sugar and water; cook until thickened, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Let the syrup cool before adding it to the Limoncello mixture. Add to the Limoncello mixture from Step One. Add the additional bottle of vodka. Allow to rest for another 10 to 40 days. Step Three: After the rest period, strain and bottle: discarding the lemon zest. Keep in the freezer until ready to serve.

Do you want to know how to make Homemade Limoncello Recipe? Then you are in the right place! Limoncello is really easy to make. You can make it at home with a few useful tools and few ingredients.

Provided by Recipes from Italy

Categories     easy recipes

Time 30m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 big untreated organic lemons
1 liter (4 cups) of pure alcohol 95° which is equivalent to 1 liter of Everclear (190-proof) or you can use a 100-proof Vodka
600 g (3 cups) of granulated sugar
1 liter (4 cups) of water

Steps:

  • Wash the lemons then dry them with kitchen paper. Peel the lemons with a ceramic potato peeler. Take care to remove ONLY the zest (yellow part), leaving the white spongy one on the lemon, as it could give a bitter taste to the liqueur.
  • Place the lemon zest in a large airtight glass jar then pour the alcohol (or the Everclear or the Vodka). Let them infuse for 2 weeks in a cool place out of direct sunlight. Better cover the jar with a cloth to be sure that it remains in the dark. During this time, SHAKE THE JAR EVERY DAY to mix the ingredients well without ever opening the jar.
  • After the required infusion time, you need to make the syrup. So put the water and sugar in a saucepan and, over low heat, bring to a boil. Stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Then let it cool down.
  • Now filter the liquid with a sieve and remove the lemon zest.
  • Once the syrup is cold, add it to the infusion of alcohol and lemon zest and mix well. Now pour the Limoncello into glass bottles with hermetic closure or cork stopper. Store the bottles in a cool, dark place for one week.

10 LIMONCELLO COCKTAILS FEATURING THE CITRUS LIQUEUR

From thespruceeats.com
  • Easy Bourbon Tea. Use limoncello to put the "sweet" in your summer tea. This bourbon tea recipe is delightfully simple, requiring nothing more than bourbon, limoncello, and iced tea.
  • In & Out Lemontini. The in and out lemontini is one of the best ways to enjoy limoncello and your favorite vodka at the same time. This recipe simply rinses a cocktail glass with the sweet liqueur, then adds shaken vodka, leaving you with an incredibly quick citrus-kissed vodka martini.
  • Tuscan Pear. When you're ready for an adventure in flavor, the Tuscan pear is a great choice. This cocktail recipe begins with pear vodka, limoncello, and orange juice then adds a fabulous ginger snap.
  • Lemon Cake. The lemon cake recipe is one of those dessert cocktails that limoncello is famous for, and it's effortless. All you need is a bottle of RumChata and one of limoncello.
  • Good Luck Charm. An intriguing bourbon cocktail, this one is for the truly dedicated lemon lover. The good luck charm puts a very flavorful whiskey against both limoncello and lemon sour (a lemon-only version of sour mix).
  • Devil's Punch. The devil's punch brings limoncello into the world of tequila. It's similar to the margarita, using the lemon liqueur to add a tantalizing twist to the mix of tequila, orange liqueur, and sour mix.
  • Honey Citrus Drop Shooter. The honey citrus drop shooter is one of the few recipes that call for a lemon liqueur. In these, limoncello is often your best choice because there are not many other options.
  • Lavender Lemon Drop. The lavender lemon drop is a perfect example of where you can use limoncello as a substitute. The floral vodka martini typically uses lemon juice and simple syrup, but you can pour 1 1/4 ounces of limoncello instead.
  • Sparkling Shamrock. The bright taste of limoncello is ideal for softly flavored spring cocktails. A fine place to use it is with the fruity, floral freshness of the sparkling shamrock.
  • Vodka Collins. Give the vodka collins a limoncello twist for a bright, refreshing highball. Again, pour a shot of limoncello along with the vodka, and skip the lemon juice and syrup.
