    Hi,
    I have a spanish lemon tree at my house and it is full of lemons. I am looking for any ideas on how or what to do with all these lemons. A liquor sounds like fun any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hi John,

    I’m not familiar with what may be different about spanish lemons but I would use the standard recipe and experiment. Most citrus fruits can produce a decent liquor with minor variations on that recipe so I’m sure spanish lemons would be delicious.

    Ben, I was wondering if you had tried using powedered sugar in a batch? Do you think it would give the lemoncello a “smoother, creamer” texture?

    I haven’t tried powdered sugar because I think it has a fundamentally different flavor than regular sugar. I’m not sure why but that’s my perception. I doubt that using it would impart a different texture though because you boil the sugar with water to create the syrup and although the flavor of various sugars would come through, they are all reduced to syrup so the texture should be unaffected.

    I have tried organic sugars but they tend to have a molasses flavor that I don’t like in the limoncello.

    Powdered sugar contains corn starch in addition to the sugar, so I don’t recommend trying it in the limoncello. Boiling powdered sugar in water will hydrate the starch and create a gummy mess.

    There you go, it would change the texture but not in a good way. Thanks Emily!
