Limoncello

Q: What is limoncello made from?

Limoncello is made by steeping lemon zest — traditionally from Sorrento or Amalfi lemons — in neutral spirit, then blending with sugar syrup. No artificial lemon flavour: just zest, spirit and sweetness.

Q: How do you drink limoncello?

The classic serve is an ice-cold shot after dinner, straight from the freezer. It also makes a brilliant limoncello spritz with prosecco and soda water, and adds a kick to desserts like lemon sorbet.

Q: How strong is limoncello?

Most limoncello is between 25% and 30% ABV — stronger than wine but softer than most spirits, which is why it works so well as a chilled sipper.
