Teresa's apple pie "moonshine"
3 hours 10 min
This is a wonderful recipe I found online and started tinkering with, made a change here and there to get the finished product. I've made it for several parties, and it's always a hit. It makes about 2 1/2 gallons so is wonderful to gift once the weather gets chilly! You can drink it hot or cold, but, watch out - it's pretty strong!

If you would like it warm, put a cup in the microwave for a minute to heat so the alcohol doesn't burn off. This would be great for any Autmun or Winter celebrations.
