Reviews
Delicious – but needs some lemon juice to add a little tartness!
This drink is delicious! It just says “SUMMER”. I made it at a party and had to make several more batches. Almost wish I’d never tried it! 🙂
What is Limoncello and where is it that I purchase pink cocktail sugar and the sanding sugar? Thanks you, some of us don’t k now what all the ingredients are or the terminology, sorry.
My wife and I tried this and I didnt think it was worth making. My wife couldnt even drink it and ended up throwing it away. I dont know if it was our melon or what but I wouldnt recommend it.
viva summertime
I tried this drink to compliment a seafood lasagna I made for my husband and I. It was great. I will add this to my recipe booklet to make again and again for future dinners.
which is always nice for a punch, but this ends up tasting like fruitloops
My husband and I tried Meloncello for the first time tonight, and we both thought it was outstanding! My only modification to the recipe was to decrease Limoncello from 3.5 oz to 2 for his and 1.5 for mine (it’s heady stuff!) but there was still plenty for a subtle kick without a strong alcoholic aftertaste. This drink is light, refreshing and easy to make – a perfect treat for a sultry summer night.
