COCKTAILS & SUGGESTIONS
Straight and classic
Limoncello is traditionally served chilled (freezer or fridge) at the end of a meal. By chilling Limoncello, the tones of the alcohol are lowered. The low temperature also increases viscosity making it more pleasant at the sense of touch. By the way, high quality Limoncello is very pleasant at room temperature also.
Served generally in a cordial glass or classic flute.
Pairing suggestion- Try savoring dark chocolate when sipping Limoncello.
