Here's a southern classic.
A lot of people refer to it as apple pie flavored moonshine. However it is more of a cocktail by nature of creation.
I make mine by taking a gallon of regular old apple juice and a gallon of apple cider and bringing them to a boil in a large pot. As soon as it starts to roll, remove from heat. Then, you are going to mix in a cup and a half of white sugar, and a cup and a half of brown sugar, stir till dissolved. Add in two or three cinnamon sticks.
Now, this part is important. Clean 8 quart mason jars and drop a cinnamon stick in each one. Once the juice has cooled off to 150 degrees add just shy of one 750ml bottle of 191 everclear and mix well.
While still hot, pour into mason jars and seal up quickly. The cooling will suck the lids down creating a nice seal. I've kept these jars in the pantry for up to three months like this with no ill effects.
(NOTE: If yah add the 'moonshine' before the temp gets low enough, it will boil off.)
