Aging, Straining, filtering, and Drinking Your Lime Liqueur

Shake well and store away from sunlight in a cool and dry place for 1 week.

Agitate the jar every other day to mix up the flavors and encourage extraction.

After a week, strain your liqueur through several layers of cheesecloth.

It helps to moisten the cheesecloth first so the liquid permeates more smoothly.

Once you get to the point where you have strained everything out, you can gently wring the cheesecloth to extract all of the liquid and juice.

If you still need to strain your liqueur further due to lack of clarity, you can strain it 1 more time through a coffee strainer.

Combine your aged liqueur with your simple syrup from step 2 in directions,add the sugar water slowly tasting till its to your likeness.

Put your bottle in the fridge. Keep it well hidden, from your family and friends so it will remain your secret surprise for your next party. And don’t forget, always serve cold!
