Lemon vodka

[5 o'clock]

One of the girls from work has a lemon tree which is producing more lemons than her kids can throw at passing traffic so I now have two shopping bags full.

Has anyone had any success making a lemon vodka?

I did a lime one a few years ago but didn't keep much in the way of notes back then. I know that I juiced them and added some of the skins and I assume some sugar to the wash with some turbo yeast. Surprisingly It turned out nicely with good flavour coming through despite the turbo and I would assume no cuts being made because I hadn't heard of them at that stage. I think that I ran it through some charcoal to reduce the flavour.

I am after recommendations for how many lemons to add to a sugar wash and which yeast to use in what I assume will be a very acidic wash, can bakers yeast handle low pH?

Thanks,

Richard

I'd be interested in this as well. I have heaps of lemons, at the moment I just do infusions
