Life gave us lemons, so…of course, vodka.
We have lots of lemons’ as you can see…they come from our lemon tree :-)
The harvest becomes especially large, when my wife gets jiggy with the tree trimmer. We’re left with a big ol’ pile, more than we’ll use for simple cooking and cleaning needs. Also, we don’t love the constant sugar from all the lemonade. Well, back to all those lemons…what to do, what to do?
We thought it’d be fun to make limoncello, like the kind my mom brought back from Italy. But we don’t love our liquor sugary, so we went with a simple answer…lemon vodka.
Our method was highly scientific, involving the strenuous task of peeling 10 lemons and adding it to vodka…hope you were able to follow all of that. After we added the rinds and let it soak for a day. Plenty of lemon flavor after one day, but we’ll let the other handle go a couple more. My guess is, it’ll be shocking, and get lemonier.
If it’s too lemony, I’ll take it upon myself to finish the handle alone; thereby saving those I know and love from unnecessary pucker.
Very Complicated Recipe
- Wash some lemons.
- Peel the rind off, avoiding getting any white pith.
- Take out some vodka from the bottles and drink that vodka so you have room for the lemon peels. Add lemon peels. Refrigerate for a day, then drink some more vodka.
