I need to make a new batch here soon (hopefully this coming weekend). Only downside to this is the cost of the alcohol, jars and postage (must be shipped in Medium Flat Rate to allow enough space to cushion jar properly.

To make a "batch"...it runs about $ 64.00 (total cost) to make 14 pints/7 quarts, this does not include shipping. But damn if it doesn't taste good.

Default Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine

Thought it would be better if I posted my recipe here...more cost effective than sending out pints.

Mac's Applie Pie Shine
Prep time 5 Min
Cook time 30 Min

Ingredients:
1 gallon apple juice
1 gallon apple cider (make sure to get a legit cider. It makes for a better product.)
3 cups white sugar
1 table spoon of Vanilla Extract
8 cinnamon sticks (again, get a legit brand. Spend the extra cash.)
1.5 (750 milliliter) bottles 190 proof Everclear grain alcohol
6-8 shots of Pinnacle Whipped Cream Vodka

Directions:
In a large pot, combine apple juice, apple cider, sugar, vanilla extract and eight cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let cool completely (overnight preferred). When juice mixture is cool, Stir in the grain alcohol and place in jars.

Store in fridge. Before serving, shake the jar (cinnamon residue will float to the bottom), pour in a cup of ice, and drink up!!

This recipe makes about 14-16 pints or 7-8 quarts.

Cole...if you read page two of this thread, I posted the recipe last year. Always good to read some old threads from the beginning.

Default Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine

Thanks for posting the recipe Mac. I went out yesterday and bought some cider, EC and the vodka. Mixed up a small batch, without knowing the rest of the ingredients. While it was good, I can see why it didn't taste completely like apple pie. Now to get the rest of the ingredients.

I'm still up for the trade. I want to try the original.

I have made this recipe and drank some of Mac's at EPIC. It's a great drink! If you want to kick it up a notch, you can use 1 1/2 cups white sugar and 1 1/2 cups brown sugar. That gives it more of an apple pie taste imo.
