Do you find yourself ever going on food tangents? You know, an idea pops into you head, a food idea mind you, and you’re off down the rabbit hole, chasing a new food adventure. So much fun, amirite?!
Well, this time I got tangled up in an old food obsession of mine, lemons. I LOVE lemons, they are so amazing! The flavors and fragrance from the peel to the juice that they gift to us is just endless and wonderful. I mean, have you ever had lemon curd? To die for amirite?!
Anyhoo, I discovered a traditional Italian liqueur called limoncello that can be simply made at home with lemon peels, vodka and sugar syrup. Of course I had to try it right away. Straight down the rabbit hole I went.
At the end of this food adventure I have to honestly say I cannot believe how well it turned out. It was gosh darn mind blowing. Our homemade Limoncello liqueur was astounding: so fragrant, so lemony, so delicious, so beautiful! Surely a gift of nectar from the gods of lemon ;)
