E
Eee? Oooo?  ;D ;D

I've made two lots now. I'm giving them as gifts at Christmas to my girl friends. The second time I made it I added back the lemon peel from the first lot with the fresh lemon peel.
I now have two lots of peel and am wondering whether to use it again? Going to try with ethanol as my Vodka is only 39% proof.
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

This sounds fabulous. It definitely won't help the diet.

I am going to give this a go :)

So after 7 days it is OK to drink.  I will make this just before we go away for 1 week so I wont be tempted to try it earlier.

Make it as soon as you can Hally, it isn't as strong as Uni's but lovely all the same. Uni's is knock you off your feet strong  ;D  I do find it freezes over though so I only keep it in the fridge and have it over ice.

Haven't made it for a while Hally but probably just the week before I have my first drink.  Mine lasts quite a while but I always have a bottle or two in the fridge so as soon as the last bottle is opened I'd put down another batch.
