How to Drink Limoncello

Limoncello is typically served chilled as an after-dinner digestif, but it can also be used in these limoncello cocktails. While it is possible to drink limoncello straight, it is usually too sweet and strong for most people’s taste buds. It is best enjoyed in small sips, either on its own or mixed with other ingredients such as in these delicious limoncello drinks.
