Limoncello
About Limoncello
Limoncello (Italian: [limonˈtʃɛlːo]) is an Italian lemon liqueur mainly produced in southern Italy, especially in the region around the Gulf of Naples, the Amalfi Coast and Sicily. It is the second-most popular liqueur in Italy and is traditionally served chilled as an after-dinner digestif. It is also a popular homemade liqueur, with various recipes available online and in print.
Limoncello is made from the zest of lemons and usually has a slightly turbid appearance, which originates from suspended small essential oil droplets.
