Well, this is how my morning started. I ran, made biscuits, and signed Ryder’s graded papers. Then, I explained to Lincoln the birds and the bees and I wasn’t ready for the last one!

And in other news, I regularly have to consult Urban Dictionary in order to communicate with my boys. I thought I was young and hip, well at least hip! Every day it’s either a new word, an old word that has changed meanings or there’s a new acronym. I can’t keep up!

On the bright side, some things never change and Apple Pie Moonshine is an old favorite. Just to be clear, this is not the old-fashioned distilled moonshine that you hide in the woods and ferment. Rather, my Apple Moonshine is a quick and tasty ‘cocktail’ made with Everclear (yikes!!), apple juice, and spices. However, it’s good. It’s really good.

Another fall favorite cocktail is this Caramel Apple Moscow Mule.

Usually, this would be a toasty drink to stay warm during cold weather, but I had it recently at a crawfish boil and thought it went with them perfectly.

It’s easy to make and tastes just like apple pie. Brown sugar gives this drink a deep-flavored sweetness and the cinnamon gives it that apple pie flavor. Don’t underestimate the cloves in this recipe, however. Cloves give it a distinct spice that can’t otherwise be duplicated. Don’t leave them out!

Apple Pie Moonshine Alcohol Percentage

It’s hard to determine the alcohol percentage in moonshine. It depends on the liquor you use.

Can I sub ingredients in Apple Pie Moonshine Everclear

Yes, absolutely. If you don’t like Everclear you can use vodka or whiskey.
