Hello,
My Dad made plum vodka, using the cheapest vodka he could find, and letting it sit for 2 months.
He used a huge punnet of plums from the market, and the large seeds too. Bashed into pieces and placed in muslin bags.
I think I may try and come up with some other flavours… hmmm.

After visiting Sicily, I came back to southern CA and my lemon trees and could not wait to try making Limoncello. I made a big batch using half vodka and half Everclear. (My son in law had made it using only Everclear and I thought it was too strong. I found using half of each improved the taste).

I only had time to make 1/2 of the recipe and kept the other half to continue to ferment for 4 months! I had no idea how it would be. It is fabulous. It tastes richer and much smoother than the batch I did earlier. I was told in Sicily to let the ingredients “marry” and get to know each other – the longer the better. Also, make sure you strain it well. It will make for a much nicer smoother flavor.

I love to make lemoncello too! i make a couple batches a year. I always use grain alchohol (everclear in most states). If you want to try this, let the peels sit for a month on a cabinet or closset so your not intised to drink it early. the take equal parts sugar and water and bring to a boil to let the sugar dissolve. you can chill this syrup or add it directly to your alchohol after you have strained out the peels. i add enough sugar water to double the total volume and add soem fresh juice as well. this gives you to bottles of lemoncello from your one bottle of everclear and it still ends up about 80 proof.

I made a batch on 4-26, been sitting for over a week now. I find that if you use good quality honey instead of the sugar/water mixture the end result is much tastier. Cheers.
