I decided to play with the new batch of Limoncello and
infuse it with Rose Geranium. The result was a Limoncello with subtle botanical
and rose-scented notes.

Chilled or served on crushed iced it will be a most
enjoyable drink on those warm summer afternoons. Rose Geranium has relaxant,
anti-depressant and antiseptic properties. Lemon peel has blood pressure
regulating, bone strengthening, strong anti-depressant and cholesterol
decreasing properties.

The Rose Geranium infused Limoncello should leave you
chilled, relaxed and feeling much healthier. Medicine has never tasted this
good.
Last year, I discarded the used peels but this year I am
keeping them infused in vodka and Limoncello and I will use them as an edible
garnish in a Limoncello cocktail or I will add them to a lemon cake for tea.

To have organic lemons where one can use the whole fruit
without worrying about pesticides and other chemicals is such a luxury.
Amazing what can be done with a few lemons. Thanks for the lovely post.
