It’s Limoncello, NOT Lemoncello.

When a friend of mine, Vittoria, learned of my newfound appreciation of this lemon liqueur, she shared her recipe with me. Vittoria is originally from Petrella, in the province of Campobasso, in the Italian region of Molise and had been making limoncello all her adult life. The brand was trademarked less than 40 years ago in the late 1980’s by the Canale family. But prior to that trademark, you can discover stories of the liqueur’s manufacture by the hands of nuns, monks, innkeepers, and various other Italians over hundreds of years.

After your limoncello is ready, you can always add more milk to your glass if you find it’s too strong.
