Step 1
Combine the cider, juice, sugars and apple chunks if using and bring to a vigorous boil, sprinkle in the spices and continue to boil for 10 more minutes, reducing it a bit
Step 2
Remove the mixture from the heat and cool completely.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
Often I can't tell how strong it is until its been chilled. Feel free to add extra Everclear in at any point, OR if you feel its to strong extra cider.
Step 5
I usually place a fresh cinnamon stick in each container.
Step 6
This will yield 4-5 quart sized mason jars full.
Step 7
Store the moonshine in a cold garage or refrigerator.
Step 8
Give it a quick shake before pouring.
Step 9
I like to put this in my freezer an hor or so before serving or taking somewhere.
