Limoncello Lush

Limencello CocktailOur first big summer weekend is upon us in just a few short days.  Okay, so it is not technically summer, but who will not be thinking big summer thoughts while standing around the BBQ this Memorial Day? 

If you’ve not had limoncello, consider keeping a bottle in your freezer just because.  In a later post, I’ll show you how to make your own lemoncello.  While it’s generally consumed straight up, it also forms the base for many cocktails.

The summer bar is all about drinks that refresh.  As you think about what to serve at your party consider the limoncello lush.  All the efforvescent  lemony goodness will refresh - and your troubles will certainly fade away as this thing is nearly all alcohol.  Simple to make, perhaps too simple to consume. Mix and serve with care.

 Ingredients:

  • 2 oz. limoncello
  • 1 oz. vodka
  • 1 oz. lemon juice
  • Presecco

 Procedure:

  1. Combine limoncello, vodka, lemon juice, and ice in a cocktail shaker and shake well.
  2. Strain over ice into an old-fashioned glass. Top with Prosecco, stir gently, and garnish with a lemon slice.
