The Easy Peasy Green Teasy Limoncello recipe:

Ingredients:
1 liter Grappa (40% ABV)¹	Zest of 15 Lemons (≈2 ¾ kg)	250 ml Water	500 ml Sugar

¹May substitute Vodka or other clear liquor

Place the Grappa and lemon zest in a large jar
- Gently turn jar to fully coat the lemon zest
Place the jar in a cool, dark place to allow for infusion
- Gently turn jar every day
After 6 weeks, test lemon zest by bending a large section
- If the zest piece breaks easily, the infusion is complete and ready for the addition of syrup
- If the zest piece bends but does not break, replace the zest piece, and wait a week
Prepare the syrup
- Combine the water and sugar over medium heat until fully dissolved
- Cool the syrup to room temperature before adding to the lemon infused Grappa
Prepare the lemon infused Grappa
- Remove the spent lemon zest from the Grappa
- Strain the lemon infused Grappa through a fine mesh sieve
- Strain the lemon infused Grappa again using moist cheese cloth with a fine mesh sieve
- Strain the mixture once more using moist #4 coffee filters and a fine mesh sieve

- Return the Limoncello to the jar and rest in a cool, dark place for 6 weeks
- Strain the rested Limoncello through moist #4 coffee filters and a fine mesh sieve
Return the Limoncello to the bottle and seal tightly
