Make your own intense lemon flavoured liqueur which can be bottled and given as Christmas gifts. The recipe requires storing in a jar for two weeks, during this time it will need shaking gently every two days before straining and pouring into bottles. Limoncello is best served chilled as an after-dinner treat. This recipe makes enough to fill 6 x 250ml bottles.
