Son Of Limoncello

1. 1

   Peel the lemon rind as thinly as possible so none of the bitter pith remain. Remove all remaining pith from each lemon until only the fruit is left.

2. 2

   Put the distilled water, the rind, and the fruit in a small pot and heat to almost boiling.

3. 3

   Pour everything into a mason jar or pitcher and cool. After an hour, taste the lemon juice to see if it's tart enough.

4. 4

   Remove the lemons and the rind and strain the mixture. Add the vodka to taste.

5. 5

   Make sugar syrup by heating the half cup of sugar and half cup of water in a sauce pan on medium heat.

6. 6

   Make sure all the sugar is covered by the water and wait (don't stir), until all the sugar is dissolved and the syrup comes to a gentle boil, is syrupy, but still clear.

7. 7

   Sweeten your lemon vodka mixture with the syrup to taste. Chill until ready to serve. Garnish with a thin slice of lemon or a sprig of rosemary. Chin chin.
