How to Make Apple Pie Moonshine
- In a large pot, combine 4 cups of apple juice and 2 cups of apple cider. Heat over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Simmer the mixture for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- During the last 5 minutes of simmering, add 3 cinnamon sticks to infuse the mixture with warm spice.
- After 20 minutes, remove the pot from the heat and let the mixture cool completely. This is crucial to prevent diluting the alcohol later.
- Once the mixture is completely cool, gently stir in 1 cup of Everclear and 1/2 cup of whipped cream vodka.
- Carefully remove the cinnamon sticks.
- Pour the Apple Pie Moonshine into a large pitcher or beverage dispenser. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and chill thoroughly before serving. Enjoy responsibly!
