Limoncello Liqueur

Limoncello liqueur is a lemon-infused liqueur originating from Italy, particularly the Amalfi Coast and the Sorrentine Peninsula. It is celebrated for its vibrant lemony aroma and sweet-tart citrus flavor, often served as a chilled aperitif or used as an ingredient in cocktails and desserts.

History

Limoncello's history can be traced back to the early 20th century, though it is believed to have earlier roots in homemade lemon liqueurs produced in Southern Italy. The sunny, lemon-drenched coast of Italy has long been known for its exceptional citrus fruits, and Limoncello emerged as a way to capture and celebrate the flavors of this region. It has since become a beloved and iconic Italian liqueur. Limoncello is typically made by steeping lemon zest in a high-proof alcohol, such as vodka or grappa, for several weeks. The resulting liquid is then strained and mixed with a simple syrup. Limoncello has a bright, citrusy flavor with a slightly sweet finish. It is typically served chilled in a small shot glass as an aperitif or digestif. Limoncello is also a popular ingredient in cocktails and desserts.
