Meletti Limoncello is an Italian liqueur made from the zest of lemons, sugar, water, and alcohol. It is produced by the Meletti family in Ascoli Piceno, Italy, using a traditional recipe that has been passed down through generations.
The process of making Meletti Limoncello begins with carefully selecting the highest quality lemons, typically grown in the Amalfi Coast region of Italy. The lemons are hand-zested to extract only the flavorful yellow part of the peel, while the bitter white pith is left behind.
The lemon zest is then infused in pure alcohol for a period of time to extract the citrus oils and flavors. After the infusion process, the alcohol is filtered and mixed with a sugar syrup made from water and sugar. This syrup balances the tartness of the lemons and adds a touch of sweetness to the final product.
Meletti Limoncello is typically enjoyed chilled as a digestif or mixed into cocktails. Its bright and refreshing lemon flavor, combined with a smooth and velvety texture, makes it a popular choice for those seeking a citrusy and summery drink.
