Lemon is very beneficial to the human body because it is rich in a variety of vitamins and trace elements needed by the human body. In addition to making lemonade to drink, people often use lemons to make wine.

So how to make limoncello and how much alcohol should be used to make it?

Make lemon wine, in a ratio of 1:3, three pounds of high-strength liquor and 200 grams of rock sugar. To make 10 pounds of limoncello, you need to prepare 2 and a half pounds of lemons and 7 and a half pounds of white wine. It’s best to use white wine above 50 degrees to make lemonade.

Lemon wine making steps:

1. Wash the lemon peel with salt to remove wax and dust. It can also drain the moisture from the peel and enhance the fragrance and color of the fruit. You can also soak it in salt water for half an hour.

2. Then remove the stems from both ends of the lemon and cut into thin slices.

3. Prepare the glass jar or bottle for soaking the wine, making sure it is free of water and oil. Then add sliced ??lemon slices and rock sugar.

4. Pour in strong liquor. Store in a sealed container for more than 3 months (wine ages better and tastes better the longer it is soaked).

There are many choices of wine. If you don’t like strong wine, you can use Japanese sake or rice wine. Suitable for girls to drink. However, lemons have a lot of water and need to be diluted after soaking in them, so the final product has a lower alcohol content than the wine you bought at the time. The shelf life of sake will also be shortened. Try to drink it within half a year, and it is best to store it in the refrigerator in summer.

The amount of rock sugar can be adjusted according to your own taste. The proportion can be adjusted flexibly. After one month of storage, you can pour a little to taste the sweetness, and then see whether to add more rock sugar according to your preference.
