Italian lemon cultivators are known for their attention to detail, and the production of this aromatic drink has its roots in the Amalfi Coast and Sorrentine Peninsula in southern Italy. Lemons with brilliant yellow rinds, intense fragrances, sweet flesh, and balanced acidity are commonly used in limoncello due to their delicious taste and aroma. Serving limoncello straight into a shot glass, chilled to the core, is the way to enjoy it. In comparison to room temperature limoncello, those served at freezing temperatures are thicker and more syrupy. Due to its rapid heating, it is best to serve it in small portions, such as in shot glasses.
