LimoncelloCaraf and Glasses Limoncello Brings A Little Bit of SunshineIs this gor­geous? Gotta love Michael Chiarello and Napastyle for their excel­lent serv­ing ideas. This carafe set is on my “Must get” list.

Speak­ing of Limon­cello, the other day I bought my first bot­tle ofLimon­cello, just because. I saw a cou­ple cock­tail recipes that I want to try and they sounded deli­cious. I knew it had a bit of za-za-zu as, well, we all heard about Danny Devito and George Clooney falling prey to its siren call.

As I was in my freezer this morn­ing, that lovely bot­tle was just in front of my eyes beg­ging to be in recipes other than just cock­tails which sent me on a mission.

Cour­tesy of Epi­cu­ri­ous, I’m adding this recipe to my arse­nal for my next soiree. Enjoy!
