Quick Apple Pie Moonshine

Jun.posted by Paula 16 Comments

Jump to Recipe

Quick Apple Pie Moonshine a fun cocktail reminiscent of years past. This cocktail recipe, however, is made quickly and easily. It’s slightly sweet and full of apple and cinnamon.

Quick Apple Pie Moonshine

Well, this is how my morning started. I ran. I made biscuits. I signed Ryder’s graded papers and I explained to Lincoln why Bruce Jenner now has breasts. 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 Pie Moonshine is a quick and tasty ‘cocktail’ made with Everclear (yikes!!), apple juice and spices. However, it’s good. It’s real good.

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 distinct spice that can’t otherwise be duplicated. Don’t leave them out!

    If you seal the mason jars in boiling water will it keep longer?

      No, it needs to be refrigerated.

      Yes it will go bad. It will be good about 10 days in the refrigerator

      I want to make this Apple pie shine for gifts. Can I keep it in the refrigerator for a couple of months after making. ?
      How long will it last in cool dark storage?

        It will only keep about a week in the refrigerator. It will ferment and get funky for much longer than that.

    Do you recommend straining out the cloves or leave them in when you jar it? Thanks!

    Could you package it in a mason jar and give it as a gift?

    In your moonshine recipe, the directions mention cider, but there is no cider in the ingredient list. Also, cloves are mentioned in the ingredient list, but not in the directions. Please clarify. Thanks.

      So sorry, I couldn’t find cider when I made it this time so I subbed the cloves for that flavor. I have corrected the recipe, thanks for letting me know!
