Ingredients
5 lemons, halved
1 3-oz package lemon-flavored gelatin (i.e. Jell-o)
1 cup water
1/2 cup lemon-flavored vodka (like Absolute Citron)
1/2 cup lemoncello
1 cup fine granulated sugar
Directions
Carefully, scrape the pulp out of the melon halves with a spoon or melon baller. Position the lemon rinds on a mini-muffin tray so that they remain stable. You can also just put them on a cookie sheet, touching so that they support each other and stay level.
Bring one cup of water to a boil on the stovetop. Add the gelatin to the boiling water and stir the gelatin with a whisk until it completely dissolves. Remove from the heat and stir in the vodka and lemoncello. Pour the gelatin mixture into the lemon halves. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours until the gelatin has set.
Cut the lemons halves into 3 or 4 equal portions, using a sharp chef’s knife. Place sugar in a bowl and coat the lemons. Store in refrigerator if they aren’t all gone immediately.
