I am making this as a Christmas gift! How do you store it (pantry/refrigerator?) and how long does it keep? Thanks!
Amy says
This recipe is my absolute favorite moonshine. I’ll share others I make but I keep this one every batch! Sooo yummy. I used Dole canned dark sweet cherries and Juicy Juice cherry juice. Easy to find ingredients and I use Everclear, not Vodka. I drink straight over ice. The alcohol isn’t overpowering even though I opt for the Everclear over Vodka.
Cyndi says
Canned cherries or cherry pie filling?
Viv says
I used tart cherry juice I couldn’t find sweet and I also used Jared maraschino cherries because I couldn’t find canned and I threw the whole jar in….juice and all… it was delicious if you want it sweeter just add more sugar
Joan says
Not sure if the 2 cans are cherry pie filling and where can I get cherry juice?.
Tia says
Question,
Do you have to seal them like you were canning them for shelving?
Barbara says
Tart or sweet canned cherries?
Can you use frozen ?
Can I put the finished product in the freezer?
Do you know of a way to not have to refrigerate it?
Lisa F. says
Can’t wait to make some! And I just happen to have a bottle of everclear! Quick question how should the jars be stored! At room temperature or in the refrigerator? And for how long is it good for? Not that I foresee it lasting to long but just out of curiosity? Thanks again!
Spaceycar says
Must be refrigerated.
Jordan says
What proof of everclear is suggested for this?
Spaceyzcar says
Forget the Everclear just use vanilla flavored vodka. Made it that way and it was so good.
Trisha says
I would like to try this recipe as I am a cherry lover, but I’m not sure if you are using tart or sweet cherries. Thanks for your help.
Angela W. says
How long will this keep at room temperature?
Spaceycar says
It must be refrigerated.
Mike says
How long does it have to store for before its ready to drink?
Jennie says
Looks good, but please don’t call it moonshine. It’s not moonshine.
Wanda Clausen says
Where do I find canned cherries and cherry juice. Is it cherry pie filling? I want to make this for camping with friends.
Tammilee says
I found cherry juice in the juice section of our local Safeway. The cherries work great from pie filling cherries. I hope this helps! Have fun camping.
Lynn says
I don’t think is pie filling. The canned cherries should be with the other canned fruit. Although I’ve never liked, the cherry juice might be in the juice isle.
Kelly Hutchinson says
This sounds like something that is right up my alley! I think it would be great over vanilla bean ice ream!
Amy Desrosiers says
My husband is really into boozy fruit dishes. I bet this is awesome on ice cream or pound cake!
diane says
This looks heavenly! Might have to try something like this for a fathers day treat!
Andrew says
Wow, this sounds delicious! You had me at Vodka! #delish #nomnomnom #yum!
Jenna Wood says
Yummy, I’d love to try this over ice cream or with a Coke! I’ve never really considered distilling my own spirits, or canning them but this sounds like a great gift fr the holidays.
