Apple Pie Moonshine- Ninja Foodi Recipe

It’s almost apple season!  You know what that means!!  It’s time for Apple Pie Moonshine!  What? Moonshine?  

Yes, you can make your own moonshine from the comfort of your own kitchen!  Ok- so it may not be “real” moonshine, but in terms of potency, it’s pretty darn close.  

With the addition of the Everclear, which is 190 proof, Apple Pie Moonshine has got a serious kick! 

With the use of your Ninja Foodi, you can have delicious Moonshine in less than an hour!  

Be careful when you are drinking it though, it tastes soooo good, but remember that it is pretty strong.

Tips for making Apple Pie Moonshine in the Ninja Foodi:

1. Drink sparingly.  Everclear is 190 proof and is VERY strong.

2. Serve over ice, as a shot or in a martini with your favorite cream-based liquor.

3.Be sure to let Apple Pie Moonshine cool completely before adding in liquor otherwise you may end up cooking out the liquor content.

4.Store in glass mason jars!  Not only does the Apple Pie Moonshine look great in the mason jar, but it’s also a great way to seal and save for later.  No spilling!  🙂
