SUGAR LAND, TX, UNITED STATES, June 22, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — **Daphane Limoncello Celebrates National Limoncello Day 2024**
As Americans gear up to celebrate National Limoncello Day on June 22nd, they indulge in a tradition rooted in the sun-soaked Amalfi Coast of Italy. Limoncello, a vibrant lemon liqueur, embodies the essence of summer with its bright citrus flavor and smooth texture. Crafted initially in Southern Italy, this delightful digestif has transcended borders to become a beloved spirit globally. Sugarland, TX-based Cashid Beverage LTD Co and its founders, Daphane Carter and Taia Rashid, are kicking off the the 2024 summer season by celebrating National Limoncello Day!
** The Story of Limoncello**
While Limoncello’s heart lies in Italy, its popularity has spurred production worldwide. In the United States, enthusiasts have embraced the craft, creating local interpretations that capture the essence of Italian tradition with a distinctive American flair. Limoncello is cherished not only for its refreshing taste but also for its versatility. Traditionally served chilled as a digestif, it has also found its way into cocktails and culinary creations, adding a zesty kick to desserts and sauces. Limoncello embodies the spirit of conviviality and celebration, whether sipped on its own or mixed into inventive cocktails. Limoncello consumption rises globally each year, reflecting its growing popularity and cultural significance. The United States has witnessed a surge in demand for artisanal variations, prompting local producers to innovate and cater to evolving consumer preferences.
Co-founder Daphane Carter shares her enthusiasm for National Limoncello Day: “When the summer heat hands you lemons, drink limoncello! As you can see when you step outside, summer has arrived, and the 100-degree days are here to stay. Sitting by the pool and sipping an ice-cold limoncello has a new meaning with the rising temperatures. It’s the ideal bright, refreshing drink for surviving the summer heat. If you’re having a summer party or an after-dinner drink, grab a bottle of Daphane Limoncello and serve it chilled or over ice. Happy Limoncello Day!”
**American-Made Excellence: Daphane Limoncello and Raspberry Berrycello**
Founded in 2022 by best friends Daphane Carter and Taia Rashid in Houston, Texas, Cashid Beverage Company stands as the first Black female-owned citrus-based liqueur producer in the United States.
