Notes

Additional Tips:
  • Use decaffeinated black tea if you are planning to drink this after dinner. We try to limit our intake of caffeine late in the day so it won't impact our sleep.
  • Chill the Limoncello before using it in your cocktails. I keep a bottle in the refrigerator and use it for cocktails, this ensures that your drinks stay cold. A small glass of Limoncello also makes a delicious after dinner drink.
  • If you love mint, muddle a leaf or two in the bottom of your glasses before mixing your Tipsy Palmer.
