How to Make the Authentic Kind Your Foodie Friends Will Love!
Ingredients
  • 750 ml bottle of Alcohol - For large batches using liter bottles, be sure to adjust the ratio of simple syrup accordingly.
  • 15 Lemons (use navel or blood oranges for arancello) - Fresh, organic, if possible.  It's a lot of lemons but you'll get the best amount of infusion from this amount of lemons/oranges.
  • White sugar (avoid using natural sugars as they impart a caramel-y taste to the batch)
  • Clean bottles for bottling
  • The best limoncello is made with grain alcohol, but if you're like me (in the US) where it's not readily available to buy, use an inexpensive non-potato vodka, like Svedka, Smirnoff or similar. Avoid using high-end vodkas - they're a waste of money when making homemade limoncello!
  • note: NOTE: Using grain alcohol or Everclear will pack a punch in the finished product. Sweeten with a bit more simple syrup if needed, but the taste with be stronger than with regular vodka.
  • TIP: To make Spiced Arancello: Simply add one whole clove, one whole cardamom pod, and one whole cinnamon stick in each bottle of Arancello. That's it. Bottle, chill and enjoy!
