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.

I’ve made this several times and keep coming back for more. This last time (being from Texas), I put some freshly picked sliced jalapeño halves in the mix and it was a huge hit at my last company party. Spicy is not typically associated with peach cobbler, but it was amazing.
Paula says
Wow, I love that! Def will try. Thanks for commenting.
Lesley says
I plan on making a Peach syrup this year while canning peaches. Would I be able to use this syrup in place of the grape juice? If so, the same amount? Thanks
Paula says
Yes, you can and I’d use the same amount.
ANTHONY says
I just tried your recipe, but I made some changes. I used double the juice, 3 cups of sugar, an ENTIRE 750 ml bottle of Everclear, and an entire 750ml bottle of Peach Schnapps. OMG it turned out so good, everyone loved it. I am now in the process of making multiple batches to give as gifts for Christmas. A one pint jar of this is enough to annihilate you, and a friend! The longer you let it sit, the smoother and stronger it gets!
Bo says
Regular sugar or brown?
Sara Sizemore says
Just recently got into the moonshine making. So far, I’ve made the Dreamsicle, Lemon, and Apple Pie. All three turned out way beyond fantastic.!!! Had a policeman tell me “I was dangerous” after he had some of my Lemonade Shine. Made me one proud chickie. When I package my pride n joy, I fancy it up. Put labels on each jar, ribbons tied around top, and wrap each jar in different colored mesh. Then into the baskets, wrapped up with mesh and ribbon. I always include list of ingredients, and how to store, and to always shake well before opening. I use one liter or more to every batch, of 190 proof Everclear. Of course, I can not sell this product, but I suggest a small donation will be acceptable, to help me with the cost of all I use. They in turn, have the pleasure of getting more shine, free of charge. A lesson learned; when tasting your product, take small sips. Very small sips.. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.!!
Paula says
And thank you for commenting and sharing how you package yours. I love that!! Keep shining 😉
Shane says
Anthony/ Paula i didn’t see how much shine was called for, is it a gallon for what the recipe ingredients and you just added more everclear and schnapps,
Jack Sherrer says
Love this recipe!! Have made it twice now with the second round given as gifts (and they were appreciated!!).
Does each serving really contain 54 kcals (5400 cals)? That seems way too high…??
ANTHONY says
The juice has a lot of sugar in it as well as the additional sugar added
Austin says
Does this HAVE to be refrigerated or can it be left in a cool place to store it?
Paula says
I really need to be refrigerated.
Brian says
Refrigerated
Kelly says
I can not find White Grape Peach juice. What can I use in place of that?
Paula says
Use all white grape juice
ANTHONY says
You can also try using the simply peach juice in the refrigerated section
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.
Paula says
yep #3 in post
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
