Ok so I didn’t use a real recipe and I made this a couple of months ago. But here’s what I’m pretty sure I did… this recipe is for 1 gallon Ingredients: 5 pomelos or so Maybe a couple of lemons and oranges just to add a little something something 6-7 cups of sugar I think Water 1 packet of champagne yeast, DONT USE BREAD YEAST Juice the pomelos and other citrus as best you can, do Your best to not get any pulp. This can be done with a cheesecloth or strainer. Dissolve the sugar in a couple cups of water, let it cool to room temperature or slightly warmer. combine this with the juice, and add water until you have about a gallon. at this point I also added some like dried lavender and rose petals that I had lying around but to be honest I don’t think you could really taste them. Pour all of this in a container that has either an airlock or that you can put a balloon over the top of. This is important for the fermentation. Dissolve your champagne yeast in some warm water and pour it in there. seal that baby up with either an airlock or a balloon. Check in on her after about a month, ideally you want to let all the sediment settle to the bottom so it doesn’t taste as yeasty. This stuff is STRONG just fyi…. Bonus is You can candy thé pomelo peels

Inspired by sofe sharing her recipe POMELO HOOCH recipe. Limoncello is also easy to make as long as you are patient. It's simply an infusion. It's cold steeping tea. My basic recipe: Ingredients— 750ml 190 proof grain alcohol 10 lemons 250ml honey 500ml water Preparation— Peel the lemons while avoiding the pith (white part, adds bitterness) and place the peels in a large container with an airtight seal (I use a similar jar with a swing lid). Juice the lemons and add up to 250ml of lemon juice to the peels. Pour in the grain alcohol and seal the container. Place in a cool, dry place away from sunlight for two weeks. Gently swirl the infusion once a day. After steeping, strain the infusion through cheesecloth into another container. Combine the honey and water to make a syrup. You can do this in a pot on a stove by stirring and bringing it to a simmer. I prefer to put them in a large mason jar and shaking the hell out of it. Pour the honey simple syrup into the infusion and stir. The concoction will turn from clear to cloudy due to the ouzu effect. You now have limoncello. Transfer to bottles (I like using one like these) and either enjoy immediately, chill in the freezer, or put away in the cool, dry spot to mellow further.

Gazpacho only in the late summer, persimmons only in the winter, etc. just because we can import anything from anywhere anytime doesn’t mean we should. Nothing is special if you can have it whenever you want it.
