Ingredients for Homemade Limoncello Cream (Limoncino):
- 10 lemons (Large, untreated)
- 2 1/8 cups pure alcohol
- 3 1/2 cups sugar
- 4 1/4 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
Steps
The preparation of homemade Limoncello Cream (Limoncino) is very simple, remember that we have to wait 6 days to macerate the lemon peels with the alcohol, watch the video HERE.
First, we need to wash the lemon peels very well (I used a brush), dry them, and then remove the thinnest possible peel (I used a potato peeler). Place the peels obtained in a container. Add the alcohol.
Close and wait for 6 days, shaking the container once a day. After 6 days, place the sugar, milk, and cream in a saucepan and bring to a near boil.
Turn off the heat and let it cool well. Once cooled, strain the alcohol and add it. Mix and pour the limoncello cream into previously sterilized glass bottles.
Place them in the freezer and wait about two weeks before consuming.
