+
+## Ingredients
+
+- 5-7 organic lemons (regular lemons are covered in wax)
+- 300ml 95% ABV grain alcohol
+- 700ml water
+- 500ml sugar
+
+## Directions
+
+1. Pour the alcohol into a 1 liter mason jar
+2. Peel the lemons avoiding the white pith (it will make your limoncello bitter) and submerse them in the alcohol
+3. Cover the jar and let the lemons infuse the alcohol for 20 days
+4. After the infusion is completed, create a simple syrup by boiling the water and dissolving the sugar in the water
+5. Allow the water to cool completely, then strain the alcohol into the sugar water and stir
+6. Bottle or put it back into the mason jar
+7. Feel free to scale the recipe up or down, and adjust the sugar to the sweetness you like, but the ABV should remain somewhere around 28-30%
