My Sardinian friend: "Limoncello is too weak" ..

....says my friend from Sardinia about the limoncello recipe
I put on the blog when returning from Italy last week. See below.

This is Helmut´s recipe with a bit more Sardinian bazzazz!

"Peel the skin of 5 lemons without the white underneath (it is bitter!)

cut them in little peaces into the jar

0.5 l of alcohol 95 %
(if not available you can use vodka - 1 liter, but in this case skip the water)

0.5 l water

300 g sugar

1 packet of vanilla sugar about 10 g

Put all into the bottle and then close firmly

for ten days. Every morning or so, shake the bottle so the sugar is melting good

after that filter, chill it icy cold and enjoy!"

Thanks Helmut!
I´ll surely try this one !instead
