Instructions

   Using a vegetable peeler, I remove the zest and cut off the white layer, as it adds bitterness.

   Step 3

   I finely chop the peeled fruits and lemon zest with a sharp knife and place them in a jar.

   Step 4

   I mix the alcohol with water (about 300 milliliters) to achieve a strength of 50 degrees and pour the resulting mixture over the jar with lemons. I place the drink in a cool, dark place and let it infuse for 3 weeks.
