Suggested Use
Lemon liqueur is perfect to be enjoyed in its purest form. Served chilled or over ice, it is a refreshing drink that enhances the vibrant citrus aroma of Portuguese lemons. Ideal as an aperitif before meals, it awakens the appetite and stimulates the senses with its balanced acidity and lightly sweet finish.
For cocktail lovers, this liqueur is a versatile ingredient that transforms simple mixes into unique experiences.

In desserts, lemon liqueur is a true ally. It can be used to flavor cakes and tarts - especially cheesecakes and fruit pies - adding a fresh and elegant taste. It is equally delicious in mousses, semifreddos, or to moisten sponge cakes, intensifying the contrast between sweet and tart. A final drizzle over lemon gelato or sorbet turns a simple dessert into a gourmet moment.
For more daring experiences, lemon liqueur can also be used as a syrup over fresh fruit such as strawberries, raspberries, or melon, creating a light and refreshing dessert.

Origin of raw materials
The citrusy, intense freshness of this liqueur is born from Portuguese lemons—fruits of exceptional quality cultivated in regions with mild, sunny climates that favor the development of vibrant aromas and a perfectly balanced acidity.
Portuguese Lemon
The tradition of producing lemon liqueurs in Portugal dates back centuries, inspired by the use of citrus in Mediterranean gastronomy and the historical importance of these fruits in the country’s culture and economy.
The lemon, with its bright peel and juicy pulp, is one of the most versatile fruits in Portuguese orchards. Its richness in essential oils gives it an intense, unmistakable aroma which, when macerated in alcohol and water, results in a natural, fresh, and vibrant liqueur. In Portugal, the use of lemons goes far beyond cooking, extending to the tradition of crafting artisanal beverages that celebrate the flavors of the land.
Produced by hand, without the addition of artificial flavors, this liqueur preserves the authenticity of the fruit and reflects the mastery passed down from generation to generation. Each bottle embodies the essence of Portuguese lemons, combining freshness and intensity with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity.
More than just a drink, Lemon Liqueur is a tribute to the authenticity of Portuguese citrus, celebrating the tradition of transforming simple ingredients into unforgettable, flavor-filled experiences.
