Description
Indulge in the nostalgic flavors of grape Jolly Rancher candies with Grape Jolly Rancher Moonshine.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 gallon of grape juice
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 2 cups of Everclear (or other high-proof alcohol)
- 1 packet of grape Kool-Aid mix
Instructions
- In a large pot, combine the grape juice, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugars are completely dissolved.
- Remove the pot from the heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. This step is crucial to prevent the alcohol from evaporating when added later.
- Once cooled, stir in the Everclear and grape Kool-Aid mix until well combined. The Kool-Aid mix adds an extra punch of grape flavor and vibrant color to the moonshine.
- Carefully pour the mixture into clean, sterilized mason jars or bottles, leaving a little bit of room at the top of each jar or bottle to allow for expansion.
- Seal the jars or bottles tightly with lids and store them in a cool, dark place for at least two weeks. This resting period allows the flavors to meld together and intensify, resulting in a smoother and more flavorful moonshine.
- After two weeks, your Grape Jolly Rancher Moonshine is ready to enjoy! Serve it chilled over ice for a refreshing sip or get creative and use it to craft fun and flavorful cocktails.
