Stages of cooking
-
Before cooking the drink, choose the best lemons you can find. They should be fresh, bright yellow and aromatic. It is desirable to choose lemons of the same size
-
Wash the lemons and dry them with a paper towel. Remove the zest with a sharp knife
-
Cut each lemon into halves and juice them
-
Take a glass bottle and pour lemon juice with food-grade alcohol inside. Add zest. Leave in a cool dark place for 30 days
-
Take a clean cotton cloth and filter the drink
-
Cook the syrup out of water and sugar. Mix it with the drink you have just filtered. The drink will become lighter
-
Pour the ready-made lemon liqueur into glass bottles and leave it for 20-30 days. Before serving the drink, it is recommended to cool it in the fridge. You can also add ice cubes, especially if the weather is hot! Enjoy!
