Limoncello – the final decant

 

After a three month wait to see if my new recipe for limoncello is a winner, today is the day.  I’ve saved a sample from the last two years’ batches to compare. I have to say it is an unqualified success.  Three of us compared the different batches of this lemony, sweet aperitif. Made with less sugar and water than the majority of recipes I’ve read, we all picked this year’s limoncello as the best. The balance of the lemon, the sweetness of the simple syrup with smooth, silky vodka of this year’s limoncello really stood out. The sweetness did not overpower the other flavors. I will definitely use Polar Ice Vodka and Burnett’s Vodka again.

This is really good. Even in a small kitchen it is worth the space and is well worth the time.

Limoncello is simple to make. However, like many a good thing, it takes time to come to fruition. The first two steps in making limoncello the SmallSpaceCooking way can be found at:
