Buon Domenica,

Nocino is the winter version of Limoncello — you start it in June and drink it at Christmas.

It is made from green walnuts harvested around San Giovanni, the 24th of June, a tradition so specific it has its own date on the calendar.

You cannot buy them in a shop, so you need a walnut tree and you need to pick them before the shell hardens and the season is gone.

If you have a tree and want to make it, here is the full recipe and video:
