Limoncello Party Anyone?

So I've been wanting to try Limoncello for a long time, but haven't ever run across any in the store.

I just found a recipe for homemade limoncello that sounds pretty damn delicious:

1 fifth of Everclear (195 proof grain alcohol)
18 lemons (preferably organic so you don't get that gross wax coating)
4 cups water
4 cups sugar
1 fifth of 100 proof vodka

- Zest lemons and put into Everclear and seal tightly. Let mixture steep for 2 weeks, shaking the mixture twice a day (enough to agitate it and get the zest to swirl around)

- After 2 weeks, strain the zest from the vodka. Make a simple syrup of the 4c water and 4c sugar and let cool.

- Add the vodka to the everclear, then add simple syrup.

- Enjoy!
