Peach Cobbler Moonshine, because Apple Pie Moonshine is SO last year!
Peach Cobbler Moonshine is the lastest, greatest and tastiest cocktail recipe around! And, it’s perfect for entertaining and tailgating, which is exactly why I made it.
I sure wouldn’t want to go into the fall and tailgating football season without some new recipes!
My Apple Pie Moonshine was such a hit (with my real-life friends and on the web) that I wanted to try another version. A friend gave me fresh peaches so there was my solution. I modeled this Peach Cobbler Moonshine recipe after the Apple Pie Moonshine recipe. However, I had a difficult time finding a base juice in a peach flavor. Therefore, I went with a white grape peach which I thought turned out good.
Peach Cobbler Moonshine is simple to make, the hardest part is waiting while it cools! To make it, you simply boil the peaches, juice, brown sugar and cinnamon long enough to melt the sugar. I want to stress do not to add the Everclear and Peach Schnapps until your mixture is cool. Add alcohol to boiling or hot liquid could cause a fire.
Peach Cobbler Moonshine
- You want to store the Peach Cobbler Moonshine in the refrigerator. I personally think it tastes better if it sits a couple of days to mellow out.
- I also prefer to strain out the peaches and leave just the liquid. You can make Peach Cobbler Bread Pudding or Peach Pound Cake with the peaches! Garnish your cocktail with fresh peaches and a sprig of mint.
- If peaches are not in season, you can use canned or frozen peaches. If you use canned peaches, get them packed in light syrup or the cocktail will be too sweet.

Alicia Wenske says
I found Simply Peach juice in the fridge section of the store and made this and left the peaches in when we made it 2 weeks before we had a get together. had no issues with the peaches and it tasted fantastic!
Resa says
What about using frozen peaches. I have so many peaches this year and I do not have enough time to can all of them. Only so many hours on weekends and work all week. Hope to hear soon. Thanks.

3. If peaches are not in season, you can use canned or frozen peaches. If you use canned peaches, get them packed in light syrup or the cocktail will be too sweet.
Nancy McCormick says
Could this be made in a non-alcoholic version?
Paula says
I haven’t tried it without the alcohol, but it’d probably be good.
Cindy says
Could canned peaches be used instead of fresh?
Paula says
yes
Ryan Reyes says

Ivan says
Do you think Peach Cider could be used as the base juice?
Paula says
I’ve never had peach cider so I’m going off what I know about apple cider. I think it could, it would be more ‘earthy’ and not as sweet.
Mary says
I used peach cider and it turned out fantastic.
Valarie Jones says
I used 16 qts of juice, 8 cups of sugar, 2 bottles of everclear, and 2 bottles of peach vodka. What’s my proof at the end.
Bill says
Find the proof of any alcohol and % with a hydrometer. Find one on amazon cheap
Dr.D says
what if any would the problem be to keep the sliced peaches in the mixture to marinade them for items like ice cream I used to make something similar German dish called rumtoff with a syrupy consistency to put over pound cake ice cream etc. may I have your views on this thanks a bunch
Paula says
I left them in for a few days and they broke down and got really mushy and they almost fermented and gave the moonshine a bad taste. I think the peaches would be fine to remove and save, just not with the liquid. The alcohol, I think, is just to strong for them.

Check out Walton’s Distillery for peach moonshine.
