Hi Frank! Are you making the limoncello yourself from stratch or are you buying the ready made stuff? The former is 100x's better and the next step to convert to limoncello crema is dead simple.

The only problem is (although it's not really a problem!) is that you have to drink it within a week as fresh cream is used. Depending on the alcohol content it will keep in your deep freeze, but it will not freeze solid! It turns viscous and is fantastic.

Contact me if you want the "secret" recipe.

Thats not fair I want it too........

I'm thinking of producing a small batch. People may be interested in buying this special limoncino. We've also tried with fragola and basilico.

Interested?

Maybe its something else to do with the vast amount of lemons I'm going to get every year! Whats Fragola and Basilico? When I went to Cefalu in Sicily we got semi addicted to Meloncello, phew looks vile but tastes wonderful!

Fragola = Strawberry

Basilico = Basil

:) :)

Yes very, mine's a pint :cool:

Meloncello sounds wonderful - is it similiar to Limoncello but made from melons and does it taste like melon- buy the way has anyone an idea of the alcohol content of limoncello (roughly for the home made) or amaro (not usually stated on the bottle) It looks so healthy with pictures of carciofi etc on the bottle and many Italians use Fernet as a hangover cure, but????...
