Great tasting apple pie in a jar but it does pack quite a kick if your not careful. The longer it sits in the fridge the better it seems to get. Makes a great gift.
Ingredients
- 1 gallon apple juice
- 1 gallon apple cider
- 2 cups white sugar
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 4 cinnamon sticks, or more to taste
- 1 pinch apple pie spice
- 1 (750 milliliter) bottle 190 proof grain alcohol
- 1 (750 milliliter) bottle vodka
Directions
- Step 1
Combine apple juice, apple cider, white sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon sticks in a large pot; bring to almost a boil. Cover pot with a lid, reduce heat, and simmer for about 1 hour. Remove pot from heat and cool completely.
Step 2
Stir grain alcohol and vodka into syrup and remove cinnamon sticks. Pour apple pie moonshine into clean glass jars or bottles. Store in the refrigerator.
Cook's Note:
Try putting a cinnamon stick in each container if you like a lot of cinnamon.
Tips
I like to keep the apple juice and cider jugs to put the finished product into for storage. Also use wine bottles or the liquor bottles as well.
