Limoncello, homemade, refined-sugar-free!
Ingredients
12 Organic Lemons
4½ cups Vodka
3¼ cups Water
¼ cup Agave Nectar (or to taste)
2½ tsp Liquid Stevia Extract
½ tsp Lemon Flavor **
INSTRUCTIONS
Peel the lemons with a vegetable peeler (just enough to get the yellow skin off). Place the peels in a very large jar (or a big old vodka bottle).
Pour in the vodka and water. Seal tightly and store in the fridge for 20 days (no need to mix, shake, or stir).
Strain the mixture through a coffee filter, into a very large bowl. Discard the lemon peels and the filter.
Whisk in the agave nectar, stevia extract, and lemon flavor. Give it a taste and add more agave if you think it needs it. Pour the Limoncello into jars and refrigerate to store.
