Directions:
- Wash lemons and zest with a micro peeler, careful not to zest the pith (white part) as it is too bitter and will spoil the Limoncello.
- In large glass jar or pitcher (1 gallon) or pitcher add one bottle of vodka and all the lemon zest.
- Split the vanilla beans and scrape out seeds, adding the split beans and the seeds to the alchohol with the lemon zest.
- Cover jar and let sit a room temperatue for minimum of 20 days and up to 40 days in a cool dark place. The longer it rests, the better the taste will be, no need to stir, just wait!
- Next, combine sugar and water in a saucepan and cook of medium heat until becomes syrup, 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from stove allow to cool; once cooled, add to the Limoncello mixture.
- Now, to the Limoncello mixture pour in the 2nd bottle of vodka.
- Place mixture back into the cool dark place and allow to rest for another 20-40 days.
- After rest period, strain and bottle.
- Store the bottles of Limoncello in the freezer until ready to serve.
