Preparation

How to prepare Limoncello cream

To prepare the limoncello cream, first carefully wash the lemons (if they have any impurities, you can remove them with a scrubber). Peel the lemons with a vegetable peeler 1, being careful to avoid the white part, which is more bitter. Place the peels in a jar with a hinged lid 2 and cover with the alcohol 3.

Let it macerate in a cool, dark place for 10 days, shaking the jar 1-2 times a day 4. After the maceration period, heat cream, milk 5, and sugar in a saucepan 6.

Stir often and wait for it to come close to a boil 7, the sugar should dissolve uniformly 8. Transfer the resulting cream to a bowl 9 and let it cool completely.

Strain the alcohol and lemon peels through a sieve 10 11 and collect the aromatic liquid 12.

Now combine the flavored liquor with the well-cooled cream of cream and milk 13, then stir to mix 14. Pour into appropriate bottles 15 and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 15-20 days before consuming your limoncello cream!

Limoncello cream can be stored for about 3 months in the freezer or refrigerator. Don't worry if the creamy part tends to separate from the alcoholic part, just shake the bottle well before serving.
