Ingredients

10 lemons of medium size, thick-skinned, organic (whole and unripe)
1 liter of alcohol 90 °
600 gr. sugar
500 ml of water
1 liter of fresh milk 1,5% fat

Procedure

To make a creamy lemoncello, first, we wash the lemons and clean only the yellow part of the peel, which we put in a bowl together with the alcohol for 15 days.
Strain the peels.
Mix the milk, water and sugar and bring them to 4 - 5 boils, pulling the pot off the heat every time the boiling starts.
Allow the syrup to become lukewarm and add the alcohol together with the peels, stirring carefully.
Once it has cooled completely, strain it with a fine strainer and tulpan, then fill bottles and leave them in the fridge to "calm down" the liqueur for 3-4 days before drinking it.
