Drink Limoncello Extremely Cold For The Best Flavor Experience
BY AUTUMN SWIERS
Limoncello has a sweetness that develops into a slightly sour and tangy citrus bloom. To experience this trademark intense lemon flavor, sip limoncello as cold as possible.
Temperature affects the tongue’s ability to perceive taste or register certain flavors. On the molecular level, experiencing flavor is all about the taste buds.
To enjoy limoncello properly, the ideal serving temperature is around 40 degrees F. Serve it ice cold in a shot glass without ice or mixers, which can shift the temperature.
