Fell in love with Limoncello in Italy 4 years ago. We did try to make it once using Giada's recipe, but we used some lemons given to us from a friend and they lemons were not that great. We might try it again with some better lemons…
I would love to get the gift package you have created! Great idea.
What an inventive idea!
Thank you, Tricia. Nice to hear from you as always. ~L
