Caramel Apple Whiskey
Its time for more booze! 😉 Ive made Apple Pie and Blueberry Pie Moonshine so now its time for some Caramel Apple Whiskey!
I used Evan Williams but you can use whatever whiskey you want. I just picked something at a middle of the road price, I didnt want the cheap stuff and didn’t need top shelf either. This recipe is a bit more stiff but sweet, good for a sipper over ice or some fun holiday shots.

1/4 Cup Brown sugar

Fill your pot with the cider, cloves, brown sugar, cinnamon sticks and nutmeg. Heat until warm and start adding your caramels. Heat until caramel is melted. I simmered for about 45 minutes and kept stirring.
I picked out the cloves and cinnamon sticks when I was done cooking. Now let your caramel apple mix cool.
I want to note… use real caramel candies you usually find in the bulk candy. Werthers and other caramel candies don’t melt properly, it separates and you’ll have chunks of I dont know what floating at the surface. I had to strain it… Lesson learned first time I made this! LOL.
Now that your caramel apple mix is cool add your whiskey and then add to your mason jars. I use a canning funnel like this to fill my jars.
Link bomb! 😉
Here we are all filled tagged and ready to gift! I include the download for the tags. Hence twine and card stock on the list.

Ready to make some? It easy, quick and not so bad on the wallet making 6-12 gifts. Like I posted in the ingredient list you could use a gallon, it will be just as yummy but not as strong.
If you make some come share or if you tweaked the recipe come share that too! 🙂 Have you made some sort of adult beverage for gifts? What did you make?

Make something with one of my tutorials or something you were inspired by/learned here?
Hashtag it.
What kind of Caramels did you use? Would you consider the craft baking caramels to be high enough quality?
I used the ones in the bulk candy section. I would think the baking ones would work.
I can’t download the printables from any of your links..I even went to the library and no luck on their computers either
Its fixed now. 🙂
How long is the shelf life on the Caramel Apple Whiskey? Does it need to be refrigerated?
Cant be sure but should last a while, its booze. I stored mine in the fridge, I did just in case and ready chilled shots. haha
