With the Strawberry Moonshine recipe do you drink it the way ( after 2 weeks) it is in the jar or do you mix it with tonic or club soda etc.?

If your already using alcool for the alchohol why do you need to let it sit a couple weeks?
Reply
Brenda says
You don’t. But the longer you let it set the smoother it gets.
Reply
Jason says
The reason for letting it sit is to blend the flavors well, making it a smoother drink. If you drink it right away, the taste of the alcohol will be much more noticable.

What is 190 proof Everclear? Not sure if I can get this in Canada! Can I use something else?

Jas says
It’s very strong moonshine. And unfortunately it’s illegal in Canada still. The recipe is just for flavouring the moonshine itself.

Just a couple of questions. Why do we have to refrigerate this mixture. If it has to be refrigerated does it have to be in the refrigerator until it is consumed. I’m trying to decide if I can make this in any sizable quanity. But if it has to stay refrigerator until consumed that could limit how much is going to be made. Last question. How long can this mixture be held until it goes bad? Thanks for your time and what looks like a good recipe.

I make monshine a lot and I’ve always filtered the fruit after purée before
Adding the alcohol, so I don’t loose the alcohol % during the filtering process. With this being a purée I would filter it several times. The less pulp the longer it will have a shelf life.Reply

Since I can’t drink due to health issues, can I make it without alcohol and will it taste as good?

Just did this tonight. I tried an apple pie moonshine back in December that turned out well. I need to point out that Everclear is NOT Vodka it’s pure grain alcohol. I used frozen organic strawberries and I also used organic lemon juice. Initially the taste is overwhelming for alcohol which is why you want it to set in the fridge for a couple of weeks so the flavors blend and it’s more of a smooth taste. You need to run the filter several times if you want to keep it for longer b/c the pulp will make the drink go bad sooner rather than later. If you have the pulp in it you 100% need to refrigerate.
