== Commentary ==<br />
An amazing digestif liqueur that makes an excellent gift.<br />
<br />
== Ingredients ==<br />
* 17 large lemons, preferably organic<br />
* Two 750-milliliter bottles grain alcohol (everclear 150 or 190 is best)<br />
* 5-1/2 cups sugar<br />
* 6 cups water<br />
<br />
== Directions ==<br />
# Wash and dry the lemons. With a paring knife, remove the ends. With a vegetable peeler, remove only the yellow rind, leaving the pith intact. (Squeeze juice from the lemons and reserve for another use.)<br />
<br />
# Place the lemon peel in a 4-quart Mason jar with a rubber-seal lid. Add the grain alcohol, making sure the lemon peel is completely covered. Store in a cool, dark place, shaking the jar once each day to agitate the lemon peel.<br />
<br />
# On the 13th day, bring the water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the sugar and remove from the heat, stirring until it is dissolved. Cover and let cool to room temperature.<br />
<br />
# Place a colander on top of the saucepan and strain in the contents of the Mason jar. Discard the lemon peel. Stir to combine the liquids, about 1 minute. Transfer back to the Mason jar. Store for 3 weeks in a cool, dark place, shaking to agitate the liquid twice a day.<br />
<br />
# After 3 weeks, transfer the limoncello to smaller bottles that can be sealed with rubber stoppers. Store bottles in freezer. Serve directly from the freezer.<br />
