We tried this drink because it is the nickname for our youngest daughter, however, just like her it was far too sweet ?

Had some left over Limoncello from a summer dinner party, when we were allowed to mix indoors with 6 ! Had the ingredients for this so thought why not give it a go. Lemoney, nice, but a tad on the sweet side for me. Would be good on a bar cocktail menu.
