FAQs

What is a good mixer for apple moonshine? ›

The added flavor and extra sugars in flavored moonshine make it more sensitive to expire once exposed to air. But whether your moonshine is plain or has flavors and extra sugars, it can still last for several years, provided you store it properly.

In a shaker half-filled with ice, add the peppermint moonshine, lime juice, lemon juice and simple syrup. Mix well and strain into a co*cktail glass with ice. Garnish with lime wedge.

Nothing says moonshine chaser like a perfectly grilled steak or smoked meat. Steaks rich in fat content go well with spirits containing smoky flavors, while leaner meats pair better with sweeter hints of flavor, and cured and dry meats fit well with smooth, buttery drinks.

Neat moonshine

Served simply in a small glass at room temperature is one of the most enjoyable ways to bring out the flavours of whatever the moonshine has been made with - in our case this is our delicious, handpicked sweet potatoes, which result in a smooth, caramel finish.

Moonshine that contains fruits does not go bad. However, flavored moonshine has a shorter shelf life due to the addition of sugars, which are present in fruit-infused beverages, making it not in its purest form.

No, in fact the longer any distilled spirit stays in a barrel (which is the only time that it ages for) the more alcohol is lost to evaporation.

Typically moonshine doesn't require refrigeration for storage. Storing your moonshine in the fridge will not damage it. Direct sunlight, heat and oxygen are going to be the biggest issues you will face. So you need to keep your bottle closed and in the dark if you can.

The hot vapor distills the alcohol a second time, which results in a higher-proof moonshine. If a moonshiner wants to make their alcohol extra potent, they might “charge” the thump keg by adding undistilled mash or a few gallons of alcohol so the steam picks up extra alcohol vapor on its way to the worm box.

How do you drink Flavoured moonshine? ›

You can add ice for a cooler drink, or enjoy it without ice. Tip: Combine a lemon- or blueberry-flavored moonshine with any light beer for an extra refreshing, fizzy drink in the summer. Add ginger ale to moonshine to take some of the bitterness out of the alcohol.

As opposed to simpler, less sophisticated moonshine, Climax more closely resembles new make, or white dog, from a traditional whiskey or bourbon distillery- albeit with one difference. It is made from a mash bill of primarily corn, rye, and barley malt, but adds sugar cane to sweeten the end product.

You can use the classic two-to-one ratio of moonshine to vermouth or make it an even 50-50 split. Add some ice to dilute the flavors, and throw in a maraschino cherry for good measure. Or, even better, use maraschino cherry-flavored moonshine to create a “Moonshine Manhattan.”

Pour the moonshine into a tumbler filled with cubed or crushed ice. Top it off with Sprite, stir well, and enjoy! For an added burst, throw in some crushed mint leaves or freshly cut slices of orange.

I would suggest stone fruit that hold up well to soaking. Peaches and cherries, as well as citrus zest are all good choices. For fruit that can get a little gross, like apples or pears, I would suggest adding juice instead of fruit. That's the traditional way to make apple pie shine.

Clear Sodas: Sprite or 7Up accentuate the apple flavors while adding a smooth sweetness. Juices and Lemonades: Cranberry juice, apple cider, and lemonade offer a fruity counterbalance to the whiskey. Cola: co*ke adds a classic, robust depth to the drink.

What else can you mix with with Jack Daniel's Apple? Jack Apple's unmistakeable flavour pairs well with strong, punchy tones like ginger and cranberry, as well as lighter, floral essences like peach or blackberry. Fruit has always been a popular garnish because its freshness contrasts the robust flavour of whiskey.

Popular mixers to use with Jack Daniels Apple include ginger ale, lemon-lime soda, cranberry juice, and apple cider. These mixers complement the apple flavor of the whiskey and create delicious and refreshing co*cktails.

I do a mix of sweet maple, cinnamon, and ginger, and then I add a few pinches of cayenne. The cayenne gives the drink a nice kick, which pairs nicely with the warming bourbon, apple, and cinnamon. It's also a nice bit of spice to balance the sweetness. The syrup makes enough for about 6 drinks.
