Chezstevens Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 You could make limoncello yourself. 1 litre alcohol plus loads of lemon peel, seal in a jar for a month. Boil 1 litre of water with 300 gm sugar ... sieve lemon peel from alcohol ... and lemon infused alcohol to warm water. Jobs done. Friends in Naples raid my lemon trees and constantly have a vat or two on the go :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading on blood test this am is well below the limit. Its not what you eat always, but the quantity as well so a little of what you fancy dosn't do any harm.
