]]> I was supposed to write about web development but recently I found my old recipe on how to make your own ‘cytrynowka’. All you need is:

  • 1L 190 proof alcohol (I use EVERCLEAR 190 PROOF GRAIN ALCOHOL)
  • 8-10 lemons (depends on size)
  • 1.5 cups of sugar
  • little bit of salt
  • 1L of water

- Ok so to start you have to wash lemons and cut off the ends (and throw them away). Cut all lemons into the pieces (about 1/4 – 1/2 inch in size).

- Put lemon pieces into the metal bowl or pot, add sugar, salt and one cup of water. Add Everclear. Squeeze the lemons very well and leave like that for about 2 hours (don’t forget because it will become bitter if you keep it to long)

- soak and remove lemon pieces, filter everything (use gauze pads to filter out even the smallest pieces of lemon). Add 3 glasses of water

- in about 2-3 days filter everything again

- 5 days later it is ready to drink :) best served chilled in shot glasses :)

enjoy
