Equipment

  • large pot

Ingredients

  • 1 gallon of apple juice
  • 1 liter of 190-proofneutral grain alcohol
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 gallon of apple cider
  • 4 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 teaspoon of nutmeg ground
  • 1 gallon of apple cider
  • 3 cups of granulated sugar
  • 1 cup of brown sugar

Instructions

  • In a large pot, combine the apple juice, 190-proof neutral grain alcohol, and vanilla extract.
  • Heat the mixture on medium-low heat until it reaches a gentle simmer.
  • Add in the apple cider, cinnamon sticks, and nutmeg ground. Stir to combine.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, add in the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Stir until fully dissolved.
  • Continue to simmer the mixture for an additional 20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let it cool completely before transferring it into glass jars or bottles for storage.
  • Enjoy your homemade apple pie moonshine chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For a stronger alcohol taste, you can use 2 liters of neutral grain alcohol instead of 1 liter. Keep in mind that this will increase the potency of the moonshine.
  • Make sure to use high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Store your moonshine in glass jars or bottles with tight-fitting lids to maintain its freshness and flavor. It can last for several months if stored in a cool, dark place.
  • Serve with apple slices or cinnamon sticks for garnish and added flavor. You can also add some ice for a refreshing twist.
