A refreshing homemade citrus liqueur perfect for any occasion.
Peel the lemons and limes, ensuring to remove only the colored zest and avoiding the white pith.
Using a microplane can make zesting easier and more precise.
Place the peels in a large jar and pour the vodka over them.
Ensure the jar is sealed tightly to prevent evaporation.
Let the mixture infuse in a dark place for two weeks, shaking occasionally.
Mark the date on the jar to keep track of the infusion time.
Prepare the syrup by dissolving the sugar in boiling water, then let it cool completely.
Cooling the syrup is crucial to maintain the clarity of the liqueur.
Strain the infused vodka through a coffee filter to remove the peels.
Use a fine sieve if a coffee filter is unavailable.
Mix the strained vodka with the cooled syrup and transfer to bottles.
Use sterilized bottles to ensure the liqueur stays fresh.
Store the bottles in a dark place for at least 10 days before serving.
Chill the liqueur in the freezer for a refreshing drink.
