Grant's Limoncello

Everclear and lemons - about 25 lemons per bottle of high-proof Everclear.

Zest the lemons so that no white pith is in the peels (peels should be mostly yellow). Put the zest in a bowl, pour the Everclear over, and let it sit for 2-3 months or more to infuse - the longer the stronger the flavour.

Then mix in simple syrup (1:1 water dissolved into sugar) and let it sit for about another month. Adjust with water and sugar to taste.

Refer to Giada's Food Network recipe. Everclear nets a more oily, lemony product than vodka.
