Limoncello

submitted by dave

1 liter of 100-proof vodka
Peels of 3-4 lemons, white pitch included
1-1/2 cups water
2 cups granulated sugar

Pour the vodka into a large glass jar. Add the lemon peels. Seal and set
aside for 3 days.
After 3 days, fill a large saucepan with the water. Add the sugar and
bring to a boil; stirring frequently.
Cook uncovered at a low boil for 4-5 minutes.
Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Add the vodka and lemon
peels and set aside for 1 hour.
Discard the lemon peels. Use a funnel to pour the vodka into bottles and
seal tightly. Place in the
freezer for 6-8 hours to chill completely.
Store in the freezer, so that the drink is cold when ready to serve.
