He was given a delicious, authentic Limoncello recipe from his good friends in Bolognia. He and my Grandmother used to visit them when they were in Italy. There was a little restaurant where their friends knew the owner. It was one of their favorite places to eat in Italy. Every time they would visit, they would go there and have a great dinner. Once night, the owner sat down at their table and shared a bottle of Limoncello he made. My Grandfather liked it so much that the restaurant owner gave him the recipe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">It&#8217;s become a time honored tradition in our household to make Limoncello for family gatherings. I always enjoyed sipping on it and listening to my Grandfather talk about his travels and business stories. I hope you enjoy this recipe and enjoy time with those you love.<\/p>\n<h3>Ingredients:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4>Large or medium sized clear bowl<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Bottle of either grain alcohol or vodka<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>12 large lemons<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Potato peeler<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Saran wrap<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>6 cups of sugar<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>6 cups of water<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Cheese cloth<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Instructions:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4>Take 1\/5 of grain alcohol or vodka and add to the zest of 12 large lemons.
