Here is the first recipe I made using my Homemade Limoncello. It turned out pretty tasty. I plan on a part 2 post; I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. So much has been going on this summer. It’s hard enough to get a blog post up some day. Good thing I like the blog world and all it’s lovely people so well!
Limoncello-Gin Cocktail with Thyme (a variation of this recipe)
- 2 large sprigs fresh thyme
- 1/2 fl. oz. fresh lime juice
- 1-1/2 fl. oz. gin
- 1/2 fl. oz. limoncello
In a mixing glass or cocktail shaker, gently muddle the thyme with the lime juice. Add the gin and limoncello and fill the shaker with ice. Stir well. Strain into a chilled rocks glass filled with fresh ice, garnish with thyme, and serve. Makes 1 cocktail

I really enjoy limoncello and gin with soda, I can’t wait to try it this way!
I think gin is one of my favorite alcoholic beverages.
I’ve made a thyme infused martini so I know that I would enjoy your limoncello cocktail.
What did you put in your martini? Care to share the recipe?
I posted how to make it…”Cocktails on the dock” in July, 2011 on my blog. You can just enter martini in my search bottom and it will come up. 🙂
Thank you… I’m gonna check it out right now. 🙂
You are welcome.
I have all the ingredients and am going to try this!
It’s Friday night and guess what we’re making!
Did you like it?!?
A lot!
I had to cut mine a bit too. It was a bit strong for me.
This looks super refreshing! I saw a recipe recently for limoncello to make at home and it looks great. Maybe I’ll do that and then make these little beauties!
It is not that hard to make and the result is very nice. If you try it, let me know!
