About this recipe

Limoncello liqueur is a strong alcoholic drink, which is mainly produced in the south of Italy. Why there? Because citrons grow in this region - citrus fruits with the most juicy, thick and fragrant peel. There are many industrial versions of this liqueur, but most Italians prefer to make it themselves at home using pure alcohol. It turns out much cheaper and definitely tastier. Moreover, there are no special difficulties in the limoncello recipe, which you can easily verify right now.
