Homemade Limoncello is a bright Italian-style lemon liqueur made by steeping fresh lemon zest in vodka, then balancing it with cooled sugar syrup. It takes little hands-on work, but the slow infusion creates a lemon aroma and mellow finish that a rushed version cannot mimic. Serve it ice-cold after dinner or use a small pour in a lemony dessert. Save or print this recipe before you start so the timing, straining, and bottling steps are easy to follow.
