PEACH COBBLER MOONSHINE

My Apple Pie Moonshine was such a hit (with my real-life friends and on the web) that I wanted to try another version. A friend gave me fresh peaches so there was my solution. I modeled this Peach Cobbler Moonshine recipe after the Apple Pie Moonshine recipe. However, I had a difficult time finding a base juice in a peach flavor. Therefore, I went with a white grape peach which I thought turned out good.

Peach Cobbler Moonshine is simple to make, the hardest part is waiting while it cools! To make it, you simply boil the peaches, juice, brown sugar, and cinnamon long enough to melt the sugar. I want to stress one point: Do not add the Everclear and Peach Schnapps until your mixture is cool. Add alcohol to boiling or hot liquid could cause a fire.

INGREDIENTS AND SUBSTITUTIONS YOU’LL NEED

White grape peach juice.
Fresh or canned peaches.
Brown Sugar.
Cinnamon.
Everclear. Or whiskey, bourbon, or vodka
Peach Schnapps.

For Peach Moonshine Whiskey substitute whiskey or bourbon for the Everclear.As well, You can use vodka instead of Everclear.

For a summer beverage, add your Peach Everclear to sweet tea. So good!!

PEACH MOONSHINE

You want to store the Peach Cobbler Moonshine in the refrigerator. I personally think it tastes better if it sits for a couple of days to mellow out.
I also prefer to strain out the peaches and leave just the liquid. You can make Peach Cobbler Bread Pudding or Peach Pound Cake with the peaches! Garnish your co*cktail with fresh peaches and a sprig of mint.
If peaches are not in season, you can use canned or frozen peaches. If you use canned peaches, get them packed in light syrup or the co*cktail will be too sweet.
