Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 - 10 lemons medium
  • 1/2 pound raisins
  • 4 pounds sugar
  • 1 ounces dried yeast
  • 1 gallon water

Method
 

  1. Grate all lemons and put them aside. Halve the lemons and squeeze the juice into one gallon of boiling water.
  2. When the water boils again, cut off the heat at once. Pour the hot liquid over the sugar and stir until all the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Cut up the raisins and add these to the liquid. Then add the lemon rind and allow the brew to cool. Sprinkle the yeast on top and stir in. Cover and ferment for 14 days after which you strain and bottle. Leave it for one to three months and enjoy (in moderation... this has quite a kick).

Notes

I gave some to my sisters and they said it tastes like limoncello.
