LIMONCELLO

Off to Italy!!  
Not really, but with this gorgeous spring weather and warm sunshine, memories of Positano are fresh in Carlin's mind.


Il San Pietro Di Positano



Limoncello is the PERFECT summer liqueur, but make your batch soon -- it has to soak for 40 days.  Italians sip this after-dinner drink in small, chilled ceramic cups.  Salute!


Limoncello 
Peel 7 lemons.
Soak them in 2 pints pure alcohol (vodka works well) for 40 days.
Filter and mix the resulting liquid with just over 3 pints water and 2.2 lbs sugar.
Heat on stove and bring to a boil.  Leave it to cool before bottling.
Serve chilled.
This will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks or in the freezer for months.
