When life gives you lemons, make a limoncello - A receipt for sweet-sour and happy new year.
A light and fun recipe for an alcoholic drink that anyone can make at home - if she has a lemon tree at home.
There is an old saying that if life gives you lemons, make lemonade. In this story, life gave me a lot of lemons, literally, or rather, my neighbor's lemons tree produces more lemons than the entire neighborhood consumes annually. So what do you do when there are too many lemons? Start looking for cool recipes that you can only do with lemons. And so my neighbor came to this nice, easy recipe of limoncello.
