Instructions

In a large stock pot, combine all of the ingredients, EXCEPT the grain alcohol and vodka.

Simmer until all ingredients combine, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat and let cool completely.

Add grain alcohol and vodka to cooled mixture.

Line a funnel with several layers of cheese cloth.

Ladle moonshine through the funnel into clean mason jars, leaving a ½ inch head. You want to filter out any remaining solids. (Cheese cloth may need to be changed after 1-2 jars)

Tips & Tricks (5)

Spice Infusion Timing ⏱️
Add pumpkin pie spice to the mixture early and let it steep for 24-48 hours before serving to allow the cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove flavors to fully marry and deepen.
Temperature Control for Clarity 🌡️
Keep your high-proof alcohol at room temperature during mixing to prevent cloudiness, and avoid heating the mixture above 100°F to preserve the vodka's delicate flavors.
Pumpkin Puree Straining Technique 🧡
Press pumpkin puree through fine cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer to remove excess moisture and sediment, ensuring a smooth, velvety final product without grittiness.
Brown Sugar Dissolution Method 🍯
Dissolve dark brown sugar in warm apple cider first before combining with alcohol to prevent crystallization and ensure even sweetness distribution throughout the batch.
Gifting Preparation Strategy 🎁
Let the moonshine age in glass jars for at least one week before bottling for gifts, and store in cool, dark places—this allows flavors to develop and improves shelf stability.
