Servings
Several Drinks

Ingredients
4 lemons
3 cups vodka

Instructions
Wash the lemons. Using a zester or vegetable peeler, peel the skin to create narrow ribbons. Scrape away any remaining pith.

Put the peel into a large jar and add the vodka. Store in a dark, dry place for about 2 weeks, shaking the jar occasionally.

Strain through cheesecloth, discard the peel and store in a bottle ready for use.
