Danny DeVito Introduces his Limoncello to Austin

Got to meet TV and movie star Danny DeVito Saturday at Twin Liquors Hancock Center store. The occasion was the introduction of DeVito’s new Limoncello liqueur.

DeVito said that the genesis for the business occurred when he and George Clooney closed down one of their favorite Italian restaurants in NYC by drinking chilled Limoncello. This apparently led to his infamously inebriated appearance on The View the next morning.

But the good news is that out of that came a new business.

The Limoncello is produced in Italy and I must say I found it very tasty. We chilled it and mixed it with vodka. Other approaches are to mix it with silver Tequila or just drink it straight. Obviously, fresh Italian lemons are the key to this drink.

DeVito’s Limoncello will be available at Twin Liquors stores throughout the city.
