Crema di limoncello

Crema di limoncello is a cream-based variation on a classic lemon-infused limoncello. It is made by combining alcohol and lemon peel macerate with a creamy mixture of milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla. The liqueur is typically pale yellow, with a smooth, velvety texture and distinctive lemon aroma and flavors.


Like limoncello, this creamy variation is also commonly made at home, but commercial varieties are also available. This liqueur should always be served ice-cold. It is enjoyed neat, usually as a digestif, but it would also work well as a cocktail ingredient or a dessert flavoring.
