Thanksgiving is right around the corner - and for some, family events usually include a festive drink. This is just one way to use a bit of Louisburg Cider Mill Old Fashioned Apple Cider in with your celebrations.
Ingredients
1/2 Gallon Apple Juice
1 C. Brown Sugar
1 C. Granulated Sugar
A few dashes of Nutmeg
A few dashes of Cinnamon
6 Cinnamon Sticks, snapped in half
2 Honeycrisp Apples, cut into 2 inch chunks
1 750 ml bottle Everclear 80 to 151 Proof
Instructions
Combine the cider, juice, sugars and apple chunks, bring to a vigorous boil, sprinkle in the spices and continue to boil for 10 more minutes, reducing it a bit.
Remove the mixture from the heat and cool completely.
Once the mixture is at room temperature, mash up the apples with a potato masher (if you put them in) and then strain the moonshine.
Add in the Everclear, stir.
Place a fresh cinnamon stick in each container. This will yield 4-5 quart sized mason jars full
Store the moonshine in a cold garage or refrigerator.
Give it a quick shake before pouring.
