How to prepare limoncello

ingr.:

 1 l. Alcohol for liqueur

- 6 Lemons

- 400 gr. of sugar

- 6 small leaves of cedrinum herb

- 0,500 l. of Water.  

Cut the outer skin of the lemons and place with the cedrinum leaves in a covered jar with alcohol, leave them to brew for seven days.

After this time strain the infusion through a muslin cloth.

Prepare a syrup simmering the water and sugar for five minutes, and, when cooled, add to the infuse in the jar.

Leave to rest for a week and strain again through a very fine cloth in order to render the liqueur limpid.
