Limoncello

After the party we had a few weeks ago, we realized we had bought too many lemons. Instead of lemonade, Mark made Limoncello, which is very easy to do. We use the food network recipe from Giada. Take the zest off 10 lemons with a veggie peeler (cutting out pith - white part) and soak in .750 liters of vodka for at least 4 days. Make syrup - heat 3.5 cups water w/ 2.5 cups sugar until combined and add to the vodka when cool. Wait another day. Strain the vodka and bottle. Yumm! Not really a winter drink, but tasty nonetheless.
