Apple Pie Anyone?

[mrklean]

Finally found some apple cider in stores so I cooked up a batch of apple pie moonshine man that's good stuff

 

[LindellProStaf]

So tell me about it?  Is it strong cider type of stuff?  How did you do it?

[mrklean]

I guess I would call it a very strong cider haha made with a gallon of cider gallon of apple juice sugar and cinnamon sticks I also added hot tamales when I bottled and the final piece is a bottle of 151 everclear to give it its kick.  I was in Wisconsin a few weeks ago for work so I picked up some 190 proof to really give it a kick.  

Great fall drink to pass around a fire can hardly taste the everclear after it sits in the bottle for a couple weeks.

Ingredients:
1 gallon apple cider
1 gallon apple juice
3 cups white sugar
8 cinnamon sticks
1 liter bottle of 190 proof moonshine or grain alcohol

Directions
In a large stock pot, combine the apple cider, apple juice, sugar, and cinnamon 
sticks.
Bring it to a boil, then take it off the heat and allow it to cool.
Add the liter of high proof liquor.
Pour this into mason jars, put the lids on, and let it mellow out. 

Drink!

A buddy made a batch and brought some up to Red Lake on one of our ice fishing trips a couple years ago.  Man that stuff sure warms you up on a cold night.

Holy Cow that sounds like some serious fruit juice!

[mrklean]

I have been told some will put a couple cups of captain morgan or other spiced rum in it to give it more cinnamon flavor and more of a kick

Borch gave me this recipe and it taste way better than the one with hot tamales in it.

My recipe is 750 ml EverClear
1 Gal Apple Juice
1 Gal Apple Cider
8 cinnamon sticks
1/2 tsp nutmeg
3-4 1/2 cups sugar depending on sugar content of Juice and Cider.
 

If it tastes strong it needs more sugar.  Add about a 1/2 cup per 1.75ltr and shake it up.  It will dissolve and taste much better and any booze taste will disappear.
 
Bring everything but the booze to a boil for 10 minutes.  Let cool and then add booze stirring it in.  Using a funnel and cheesecloth or clean panty hose as a filter pour into bottles with 1-2 Cinnamon sticks per bottle.  refrigerate.

Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine.  When you gonna let me get sober?

[LMITOUT]

Definitely need to bring 190 from across state lines to make it legit.

Adding vanilla extract will give you apple pie a la mode.  : )

Yep, 151 just gives you a not so angry orchard without the bubbles.......go big or go home!

You can't buy 190 up in Mn.?   May have to bring a few bottles next time I come up.  For personal use only..  Side note---If banning 190 was political, Keep your politicians up there! Don't need that type of action down here.

[delcecchi]

I have never seen 190 proof in the liquor store, but haven't looked recently.  Is it sold in Scony?

[pushbutton]

You can buy it in sconnie or the nodaks. Apparently accross the southern border is filled with same the pc need to legislate stupidity crowd...... or suppose it could be the moralists. Don't know when, what , and who started it here. Plenty of drunk driving, wife beating, and underage wap puking to be done with the 151. Can't imagine a quarter more from a quarter more in a pour...... .

[delcecchi]

I have no idea why....

[RebelSS]

I have a buddy named Bubba who's proofed stuff puts up a REAL good bead of bubbles when ya shake it...
