Limoncello, Week 8

We’ve reached the 2/3 point in this first little experiment in infusing!

Now might be a good time to think about what to try next. I know I’ve been meaning to make my own grenadine at some point (the real stuff is, supposedly, so much better than the stuff on the grocery store shelf), hydromel is never a bad idea–and actually requires a bit of fermentation–and then there’s a variety of syrups that are used in tiki drinks and specialty cocktails.

But, you know, since I’m doing this in web-public, I’m open to preferences or suggestions: What would you like to learn more about?

At any rate, our limoncello is progressing nicely. It is clearing up a bit more (it’s been moved a few times–there’s not really a place in my home, right now, that is free from being disturbed) but otherwise has stayed the same.

4 more weeks and we strain!

Oh, and I mention a blind tasting in early October. A date has not yet been set but if you’re in the Tallahassee area (or can easily get here) and would like to be one of my tasters, drop me a line in the comments or email me at randomactscomics[at]gmail[dot]com and I’ll keep you in the loop! If there’s enough interest I think a casual dinner party could even be planned–no sense trying Limoncello on an empty stomach, right?
