Limoncello How To..For those that actually like Limoncello

For those that are interested on the History of Limoncello link below:

https://www.florenceinferno.com/true-story-italian-limoncello/

Why i like it? Well foremost because making it myself i am pretty sure of what i put on it,followed by the price of one bottle when you go buy one to the market,last but not least well i love the taste it leaves on my mouth and tongue bitter/sweet at least the way i make it.

Limoncello How To For those that actually like Limoncello Recipe

Ingredients

Lemons.
Alcohol 95/96 "degrees"depending on what you find.
Sugar.
Glass Jar 3Lt=101 US, liquid
Tap water.
Stainless steel Pot,alternatively you can use an aluminum pot "Not Suggested" that can contain at least 6Lt. = 270 US Ounces.
Funnel.
Tea Strainer " I suggest the following kind to be used with Funnel https://cdn.cutleryandmore.com/products/large/31058.jpg "
Ladle
A many you need of bottle with screw caps.

Directions

Patience and time are the essential.
I normally use always use 2Lt = 67 US Ounces of alcohol
Peale off the yellow part of the lemons trying to take away as little as possible of the withe thing below the yellow skin as shown in the pic:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1a_F2tdAGrIZ9TePVb-XyOVoqlP91U4Ub/view?usp=sharing .

Once you are done with lemons pealing put the skins you've obtained inside the glass jar,right after pour the alcohol "one or more bottles" as shown in the following pic:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cg4wrws7PzZOuHdle6-X4kE0RnRio6Vz/view?usp=sharing .

Once you've poured in the alcohol on the jar close it with the lid, a screwing in lid is the one i prefer to use, will be good as well the one with locking mechanism.

Now comes the waiting time and jar shacking.Every 1-2 days the jar should be shacked for at least 10 to 20 seconds,for a Minimum of 28 days,i always leave the lemons skin soak in the alcohol for 30 days because i find it gets a slightly different taste of lemon.

After 30 days of waiting comes the mixing with sugar and tap water.
Before you open the Jar!,make boil water and sugar to the point that the sugar is dissolved in the water on a stainless steel pot,and leave it to cool,NOT BARELY WARM ACTUALLY COLD!.
Once the sugar and water are COLD you can proceed as follow,grab the tea strainer and start pouring the alcohol into the pot slowly to avoid any liquid spill in the pot that didn't go through the tea strainer.

Filling up time,when all ingredients are mixed in the pot get a funnel the tea strainer and ladle,place the funnel in the bottle and begin pouring through the strainer the limoncello gently!,while pouring every 2 or 3 pours mix the limoncello in the pot and keep filling up.Close tight screw cap.
Exact proportion's on the Notes.

Notes

For 5 Lt. of Limoncello:
Alcohol 2Lt. = 67 US Ounces.
15 Lemons medium size and absolutely not treated with anything,to be washed very well before the pealing.
Sugar withe 2Kg = 4.4 pounds.
Tap water "to be mixed with withe sugar" 2.4Lt. = 81 US ounces.
I would suggest in the case of adding water no more than 2.5Lt. = 85 US ounces,
in the case of removing water nothing less than 2.3Lt. = 77 US ounces coz it would make it too alcoholic and taste very badly "at least for me".
Absolutely after the bottles are filled up,these bottles have to be left for 15 days in vertical position to rest somewhere wont get much sun directly.

Total waiting 45 days following the way i make it.

Update:
For those of ya that have difficulties on finding the Alcohol,at least in the UK they call it " Food Grade Alcohol 95/96% " 1000 ml.
For those in UK that can provide info on where to find it any shop supermarket,its actually appreciated.
Same kind of info's for any other country its appreciated.
Thanks Ya'll
