Ingredients
- 2 cups of blackberries
- 1 cup of simple syrup
- 3 cups of moonshine
-
1/2 cup water
-
1 cups granulated sugar
-
1 cinnamon stick
Instructions
Preparation: Start by preparing your ingredients. If using fresh blackberries, wash them thoroughly. Prepare a simple syrup by combining equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan and heating until the sugar dissolves. Let it cool before using.
Mixing:
- In a large mason jar or glass container, add:
- 2 cups of blackberries
- 1 cup of simple syrup
- Muddle the blackberries slightly to release their juices.
- Add:
- 3 cups of moonshine
- Stir the mixture well to combine.
Infusing: 5. Seal the container and store it in a cool, dark place for 2-4 weeks, shaking it gently every few days to ensure the flavors meld together.
Straining: 6. After the infusion period, strain the mixture through a fine strainer or cheesecloth to remove the blackberry solids.
Bottling: 7. Use a funnel to pour the infused moonshine into clean bottles or jars.
Enjoying: 8. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to several months.
