I Dreamt of Lemons and Cream


Holy Sogno Sorrento Batman, it's a Lemocello Cream Liqueur! If you have never heard of it, a classic Lemoncello is liqueur made in Southern Italy by way of combining lemon rinds, alcohol, water, and sugar. Now, don't get me wrong because I love the classics - Cool Hand Luke, apple pie, the Oldsmobile F-88 (1954), yadda, yadda, yadda, but I have just tasted something that I think kicks this classics lovely lemony bottom. A Crema Lemoncello from Sogno di Sorrento (Dreams of Sorrento). Holy moly is this stuff tasty! Rich, creamy and with the brightest most beautiful lemon flavors is a medium weight liqueur that I really don't want to stop drinking, ever! I am thinking a splash of this is a cold glass of Prosecco, or just on the rocks, might exactly what I need tonight after a long, long, long, looonngggg day.
