Method

1

Zest all the lemons (use a zester to remove only the yellow layer, avoiding the bitter white pith).

2

Place the lemon zest in vodka, seal the bottles, and steep in a dark place ideally for 7 days, shaking occasionally.

3

Juice all the lemons, strain through a sieve, and store in the fridge in a sealed bottle.

4

After a week, strain the vodka to remove the zest.

5

Combine sugar and water in a saucepan, cook the syrup, and let it cool.

6

Add the strained vodka and lemon juice to the syrup.

7

Let it rest for 24 hours in the refrigerator.
