Homemade Limoncello - Label Ideas
by Nancy Barnas
My sister has a Meyer lemon tree in her backyard, and I decided to try making limoncello because my son loves it. I had to start over a couple of months before his birthday, and zesting all those lemons was time consuming, but the limoncello was (is) amazing from these sweet organic Meyer lemons~! I don't like limoncello, but I like the limoncello from these lemons :) My son loves it, asks for more batches to be made, and said it is better than what he and his wife brought back from Italy!
I bought nice quality very long bottles, and wanted a label that would not appear too small for the bottle. I used the labels to name the product inside the bottle. I also added a bottom small round label with ingredients and instructions to keep in freezer.
Make sure to adjust printer settings for this label to either photo paper or specialty paper-glossy and also adjust print quality to either draft or the next one up, called better(?) but do not use best resolution or your label will get oversaturated with ink and smudge (I learned the hard way).
