Apple Pie Moonshine Recipe with Fireball
Ingredients
To modify your existing Apple Pie Moonshine recipe, you’ll need the following additional ingredients:
Fireball whiskey: About 1 cup, or more if you like it extra spicy.
Cinnamon sticks (optional): For added warmth and to enhance the cinnamon flavor.
Preparation Steps
Prepare the Apple Pie Moonshine Base: Follow your original Apple Pie Moonshine recipe to create the base. This typically involves combining apple cider, apple juice, sugar, cinnamon sticks, and other spices, and then simmering them together.
Cool the Mixture: Once your Apple Pie Moonshine base is ready, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool to room temperature. It’s important to cool the mixture before adding any alcohol to prevent the alcohol from evaporating.
Add the Fireball Whiskey: After the mixture has cooled, stir in the Fireball whiskey. The amount you add can be adjusted based on your personal preference for spiciness. Start with 1 cup and taste; if you want more of that cinnamon heat, feel free to add more.
Let It Sit: Transfer the moonshine to mason jars or glass bottles and seal them tightly. For best results, let the moonshine sit in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours. This allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a smoother, more cohesive drink.
Serve and Enjoy: Your Apple Pie Moonshine with Fireball is now ready to enjoy! Serve it chilled or over ice. For an extra touch, garnish with a cinnamon stick or a slice of fresh apple.
