We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to limoncello recipe. To make limoncello you only need 7 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you do it.
The ingredients needed to cook Limoncello:
- Take Ingredients
- Provide 12 medium size lemons
- Take 1 750-ml bottle of high proof vodka (140+ proof)*
- Take 3 cups of sugar
- You need 3 cups of boiling water
- Provide Hardware
- Use 1 2-quart mason jar with lid and ring
Instructions to make Limoncello:
- Scrub the lemons under running water to remove any pesticides and particulate matter.
- Add to a 2 quart mason jar the vodka.
- With a vegetable peeler, peel wide strips of zest from the 12 lemons. Try to avoid the white pith as much as possible. (As you can see from the photo below, I need to work on my peeler skills. :-(
- Add the lemon peels to the vodka and seal the jar with the lid and ring. Let it stand for 2 to 4 weeks. 2 weeks will yield a very good lemoncello. However, 4 weeks will yield a superior product with more complex flavors.
- Whenever you decide your limoncello is ready for consumption, create a simple syrup by adding the sugar to boiling water. Stir until all the sugar has dissolved into the water. Let the syrup cool.
- Add the syrup to the mason jar and stir to incorporate.
- Store in refrigerator for 1 day. Strain out the lemon peels and bottle.
- Keep your limoncello in the freezer to serve ice cold shots. It will not freeze. You can store it for up to 3 months, but I doubt it lasts that long.
- Cin cin!

- Originally I made this with Everclear. It did not taste as good as the limoncello that my parents made. Mine had a harsh taste to it. After checking with my parents, I found out that they used a high proof vodka such as, "Devil's Springs". My advice would be to steer clear of the Everclear. There is a reason that stuff is only 13 bucks a bottle.
