That mixture of simple syrup should be matched with 2 750ml bottles of vodka or grain alcohol if you can get it (which you can't in MA). If you want more detailed instructions and to benefit from all the stuff I've done wrong, check out my Limoncello Recipe on my blog, LimoncelloQuest.com.</p> http://bostonist.com/2008/03/26/drinks_are_on_u_9.php#comment-1323039 http://bostonist.com/2008/03/26/drinks_are_on_u_9.php#comment-1323039 Comments Thu, 27 Mar 2008 07:49:15 -0500 <p>I have some limoncello in my fridge that I purchased in the land of limoncello - The Amalfi Coast, Italy. We were sipping these high atop the blue waters in the cliffside town of Positano. Truly an Italian paradise. whenever I have limoncello now, it brings me right back there!</p> http://bostonist.com/2008/03/26/drinks_are_on_u_9.php#comment-1322376 http://bostonist.com/2008/03/26/drinks_are_on_u_9.php#comment-1322376 Comments Wed, 26 Mar 2008 14:16:02 -0500 <p>Yum! I've been meaning to try my hand at limoncello for a while. Is there a ratio of simple syrup to liquor, or is it to taste?</p>
