Creamy Limoncello

Smoother and creamier version of the standard limoncello. This recipe comes from Gourmet. This needs to stay chilled and will keep for one month.. Make sure to note the prep time. This needs to sit for 4 days and needs to chill for a couple of hours before being served.

Yum. Such a lovely creamy drink. I made only one serving. The milk didn't reduce very much for me but the drink was still delicious.

I reduced this recipe down to one serving. I used citrus flavored vodka to soak the zest in for added flavor. The milk did not reduce by much, so I went with half 2% and half sweetened condensed milk. This drink is quite delicious and like the title states, is nice and creamy. This drink is a nice comfy soother just before bedtime.

Yummy! Creamy! I cooked my milk for 45 minutes and still had almost the same amount. I had the zest steep in the 100 percent vodka for 6 days. I froze the finished product for 2 hours to enjoy icy cold.
