For some reason, I feel sure that someone here will be able to help me with
this query; in Italy we bought a bottle of Limoncello and were told to keep
it in the freezer. Certainly, my understanding is that our hotel kept their
supplies in that way. Is it safe for us to do this at home with the one we
bought which is 35% alcohol?

Summer Drink RecipesFOR BEST RESULTS, KEEP LIMONCELLO IN THE FREEZER (IT
WON'T SOLIDIFY). IT'S TRADITIONALLY SERVE IN CHILLED SMALL GLASSES. ...

At 35% I feel it should be left there too!! It's very, very sweet.
Terrible hangovers!
Best Wishes Brian.

Your problem is that you drink far too much booze.

I have a nItalian fiend who makes something similar using absolute alcohol.

He keeps that in the freezer, serves it from the freezer, and it blows
your head off!

We always keep ours in the freezer along with the glass aswell.
Unchilled it is sickly sweet.

It may be a bit of a hazard served at -18C direct from the freezer. The
drink won't mind, but you could get a freezer burn on your tongue.

It makes a fabulous booster for lemon syllabub though!

That's an interesting idea - never thought of that! And thanks to those who
sent in helpful replies. I know a lot of people regard Limoncello as
something just short of lemon scented disinfectant but we love it. ;-)
A Sardinian friend of mine used to make his own and it was stunning, in the
true sense of that word but it was delicious. I just couldn't remember how
he stored it but it must have been the freezer, I think.

Should be served in the same way as vodka, straight from the freezer,
but only if the alcohol content is 35% or above, here in Spain we
haveour beer in glasses strsight from the freezer, but it still warms
up quickly in the 26 degree temperatures. Actually it rained here
today, first time for us here, but then the sun came out and quickly
dried everything up.

Never having heard of it I looked it up. Here's a recipe. Where does
one obtain the alcohol?

Next trip to France. The supermarché will have very cheap white
alcohol called "alcool de fruits" or "alcool potable". If you're
staying at home, get the strongest vodka you can find; but it won't
be quite right unless you can find Polish pure spirit.

I 'think' Sainsburys in Filton (assuming you are in Bristol UK) sell Absolut vodka of a high enough proof to use, failing that they sell Limoncello.
