I take the rind and put it in a food processor until it’s finely chopped. Then I put them in a ziplock bag into the freezer. The rind never really freezes because of the alcohol content. Then I sprinkle it on grilled fish, chicken dishes and on most veggies. It makes a great twist on a lemon zest.

This is grain alcohol:

I usually end up getting Everclear, but that’s a brand. In some places, it’s illegal so you won’t find it on liquor store shelves – in others, it may not be out on the shelf but may be behind the counter.

Going to Italy in April and want to try this as I have heard so much about it from friends. What do you mean by grain alcohol, rye, rum vodka or what?

or check the %alcohol against a bottle of vodka or gin. If your limoncello is about the same (35-40%-ish), then it should be fine in the freezer.

I wasnt able to find grain alcohol either, so I use a Polish spirit that you can get at Dan Murphys – 95% alcohol. Google “rectified spirit” and it should come up.

I enjoy your website! Do you have a twitter or twitter page? I’d really like to get together and talk about a couple of things. Thanks for all your work.

Hi,
I have my first lots of limoncello and arancello ‘sitting’ but have had to use vodka.
I live in Adelaide South Australia and had difficulty finding grain alcohol.
Does anyone in Australia have any suggestions as to where grain alcohol can be purchased or do we just have to get used to vodka based ‘cellos?
