I tried the apple pie from my moms neighbor and loved it. now I can make my own. How long will it last. do you refigerate or can you just store in a cabinet.

I'm thinking with that much 190 proof in it, it's not going to go bad...  :dunno:

never tried apple pie.... gotta try it tho :drool: ive only heard good things (from those who remember well enough to recall the taste  :chuckle:)

in wa the everclear isnt the 190 proof "good *censored*" its only like 150 proof.... or sometihng like that... i think in oregon you can get it ALOT stronger than in wa.... dont quote me on that tho


anyway

last march we took 4 pounds of fresh peaches, skinned and quartered them, and then put it in a very very large resealable clasp style mason jar with 2 fifths of 150+ everclear.... we stashed it way in a dark closet for 6+ months.... and once the peaches turned to mush, we just added a bottle of 80 proof vodka, and mashed it up until it was just pure liquid....  needless to say i want to try it with huckleberrys, apples, and pears.... my aunt in california makes it with fresh apricots from the tree in her back yard...

im gonna start another post about stills and home made booze

catch it. kill it. cook it. eat it.

my buddy makes 50-70 liters of plum schnapps every summer. It's wicked stuff that goes down smooth with taste and kicks you about 4 seconds later.

I have had some pretty good home made schnapps over here. Around where I'm at near the German French border i think its like a wine/schapps mecca

I made a batch of teh Apple Pie last week. Took some to a friends house and had a few taste testers there and they loved it.

Went to a banquet for the Retreiver club that night, had some in my truck still and was talking about it to a few friends and we snuck it in and passed it around a little bit. Everyone loved it. Made a fresh batch with a little less sugar and 1/4 tsp of ground cloves for a friend on friday and took it to her yesterday, she loved it and thought it was better then the first batch.


Gotta find some "Root Beer" extract to make some schnapps now.......

Here's the recipe for my cordial wine... the girls love it and it really sneaks up on you...

You need: one 1/5 of  100 proof vodka
   
               40oz of Berries/ chopped fruit

                5 cups sugar

                empty 1 gallon jug (empty milk/water jugs work great)

Take all of the ingredients and put them in the jug. Seal the jug and shake well. let stand in cool dark place for 2 months. After it has sat for 2 months strain through some cheese cloth(very important) and bottle.

When serving mix with either 7 up or soda water (it cuts the syrupiness) I usually mix it 50/50 with soda water (less sugary)

You can't taste any alcohol.



Does it need to vent or do you SEAL it tight so it doesn't get any air?

Root beer extract for making some schnapps. We really like Root Beer Schnapps and can kill a couple bottles in a weekend or a bottle durring a party.

We like to drink "Barrel Rolls". Drop a shot root beer scnapps in a beer and slam it. Taste like a root beer float, well sort of.

We found a 100 proof root beer schnapps down in Cali. but you can't get it here  :bash: it's made by Phillups, and called Phillups Root 100. Very taste stuff there.
