Description
Homemade Lemon Liqueur in the Polish tradition
Ingredients
Scale
4 lemons
1 liter vodka
sugar, 1/4 – 3/4 cup
Instructions
Wash the lemons and submerge in boiling water (I wish I could explain the benefits of the boiling water, but I’m just following directions)
Use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from the lemons, add to a large jar or divide among multiple jars
Add vodka and sugar (to taste), and top with a lid
Shake or swirl the mixture occasionally over the next couple of days, until the sugar dissolves
Remove the lemon zest after 24 to 48 hours
Refrigerate and serve chilled
