Jump to RecipeTo make the moonshine, start by pouring the corn whiskey into a large pot. Add in the apple cider, apple juice, brown sugar, cinnamon sticks, and nutmeg. Stir well and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, make the pie filling by combining the apples, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter in a separate pot. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and the mixture is thick and syrupy.
Once both the moonshine and pie filling are done, combine the two into a large jug or mason jar. Let the mixture cool to room temperature before sealing and storing in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks. The longer it sits, the stronger the flavor will be.
When ready to serve, pour the moonshine into glasses and top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Enjoy the sweet and spicy taste of this southern apple pie moonshine with friends and family.
