Limoncello

Limoncello is a traditional Italian liqueur made by infusing lemon zest in alcohol, usually grain alcohol or vodka, then sweetening and adding water. It has a vibrant, bright lemon flavor and a smooth, sweet taste. Originating from Southern Italy, particularly the Amalfi Coast and Sicily, it is typically served chilled as a digestif after meals. The bright yellow color comes from the lemon peels, and the process highlights the citrus aroma and flavor. Limoncello is enjoyed both as a sipping drink and in various cocktails, appreciated for its refreshing, citrusy profile.
