2. Limoncello can be found in any large supermarket, but it can also be prepared at home in advance. For this, you will need the zest of 10 lemons, 0.5 liters of medical alcohol, 0.5 liters of sugar, and 650 grams of water. The zest is steeped in alcohol and left for 5 days. After that period, prepare the syrup, strain the zest, and mix the two liquids. Let the liqueur infuse for another 5 days, and the limoncello is ready.
