First, wash the lemon under water and dry them. Using a knife or peeler, remove the peels from the lemons and put them in a large container that seals properly.
Add your alcohol to the container and seal it
Set aside for a minimum of 5 days and up to 30 days ( I usually stop midway) , the longer you wait the stronger the lemon flavor will be. Make sure to store it in a cool dark place.
Around day 15 you will notice the lemons have lost their colour.
After the time has passed, put the water and sugar into a pot and bring to a simmer while stirring. Set aside to cool.
Strain the lemon peels from the alcohol and put it in the water/sugar mix.
Transfer into a bottle
Enjoy!
