“When life gives you lemon, don’t just make lemonade…make lemon meringue pie…make lemon tart…make lemon chiffon cake…make lemon liqueur…make lemon vinaigrette…make lemon pickle…Then set up shop and make your millions.”
- MALLIKA NAWAL
I would add “ make Limoncello” to the above list... as I will never forget the taste of my first sip of this liquor, sitting in a beach bar on Amalfi Coast. Devine melange of lemon, sugar, water, and alcohol with a perfect balance between sourness and sweetness. And the colour! Absolute delight!
Recently, I had pleasure tasting Limoncello again. Its taste brought me straight back to Italy, hence the inspiration for this watercolour pattern collection called “ Lemon Harvest” - lovely bright, sunny, lemony yellows mixed with blues of the Italian sea and sky. Just a dream!
