Vodka with lemon
I use the power of the whipping siphon to quickly extract the flavors from the lemon peels, reducing the macerating process from several weeks to 5 minutes. However, if you have a different size vessel, simply adjust the amount of vodka and lemons accordingly. Yes It is indeed a one-quart jar filled with 12 lemon quarters. Distilling includes the whey and natural spring water and the resulting vodka has lemon and sugary undertones which balance nicely with a cocktail featuring a lemon twist. Lemon vodka is the base for limoncello and is a citrusy, flavorful drink. For this recipe, the ingredients are based on a one-quart container. Make the unflavored syrup, then add the limoncello with the vodka.
Use 1 cup of limoncello and make 2 cups of plain syrup (1 cup sugar and 2 cups of water) as a substitute for the lemon syrup. Pour into a chilled glass and garnish with a lemon twist. Put the vodka, lemon juice, sugar syrup, egg white and a few dashes Angostura Bitters in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Most citrus vodkas are blends of fruits though you will find options with lemon, orange, and grapefruit alone. As utilized in Jamaica, natural cane sweetener, not corn syrup, is added to perfectly balance the bitterness of the fruit. This artisan process is unique in the trade due to inherent expense and labor needed to yield the perfect result. Combine Vodka with a 4:1 ratio to Vermouth in a pitcher with ice and stir. Post maceration we carefully filter out the fruit with our proprietary multi-step filter plate process. We combine our Gold Medal Award-Winning Vodka with over 500 pounds of fresh whole lemons in our maceration tanks and let time take it from there. With one taste you will discover the superior flavor compared to other artificially or concentrate based lemon vodkas. Following the launch of Absolut Peppar in 1986, this smooth lemon flavored vodka hit the market two years later and quickly became our best selling flavored vodka.
