I've had this little baby steeping away since January and figured that I might as well show you all just how easy it is to make, and drink at home!

Limoncello is a traditional Italian liquor, made with Lemons.  It is made by everyone in places like Tuscany or Sorrento and is a staple in rustic farmhouses all over the hills of Italy.
