Homemade Limoncello — Italian recipe

Homemade Limoncello

The bright, sunny lemon liqueur of Italy's Amalfi Coast, made at home: wide strips of fragrant lemon zest steeped in high-proof vodka for two weeks until the spirit turns vivid yellow, then strained and sweetened with simple syrup. About 30 minutes of hands-on work for a batch of ice-cold after-dinner sips or homemade gifts.
