Well, after over a month and a half of preparation and waiting, this year’s batch of limoncello is finally bottled. Spring is just around the corner, and so are evenings spent sipping that sweet, smooth, ice-cold nectar.
Limoncello Update
After steeping in lemon peels the past 4 weeks, my limoncello is ready for the simple syrup addition. It will take another 2-3 weeks for the solution to mellow out, then it’ll be ready for bottling. Can’t wait!
A New Batch
[20 January, 2026]
The winter doldrums settling in, I needed something that reminds of summer and warmth. So, a new batch of organic limoncello it is!
Steeping the lemon rinds takes about 4 weeks, and another 2-3 weeks after the rinds are removed and simple syrup is added. That gives me plenty of time to clean and sterilize my bottles and get them ready for the liquid gold. But what to do with all those lemons?
