We have been giving this as gifts for friends and family and everyone loves it! Seriously loves it! I keep having friends and family asking for 2nd and 3rd containers because they like it so much.
This Crock Pot Cherry Pie Moonshine is delicious on its own or you can mix it with Coke, pour it over ice cream, mix it with lemonade. There are so many great ways to enjoy this moonshine!
We love serving the Crock-Pot Cherry Moonshine over vanilla bean ice cream. A small dish is all you need for a decadent dessert!
Amazon has fantastic labels that work great to turn a mason jar into a gift. I loved these Avery Labels that you can customize before printing on them.

I am making this as a Christmas gift! How do you store it (pantry/refrigerator?) and how long does it keep? Thanks!
Amy
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
Canned cherries or cherry pie filling?
Viv
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
Not sure if the 2 cans are cherry pie filling and where can I get cherry juice?.
Tia
Question,
Do you have to seal them like you were canning them for shelving?
Barbara
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.
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!

Must be refrigerated.
Jordan
What proof of everclear is suggested for this?
Spaceyzcar
Forget the Everclear just use vanilla flavored vodka. Made it that way and it was so good.
Trisha
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.
How long will this keep at room temperature?
Spaceycar
It must be refrigerated.
Mike
How long does it have to store for before its ready to drink?
Jennie
Looks good, but please don't call it moonshine. It's not moonshine.
Wanda Clausen
Where do I find canned cherries and cherry juice. Is it cherry pie filling? I want to make this for camping with friends.
Tammilee
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
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
This sounds like something that is right up my alley! I think it would be great over vanilla bean ice ream!
Amy Desrosiers
My husband is really into boozy fruit dishes. I bet this is awesome on ice cream or pound cake!
diane
This looks heavenly! Might have to try something like this for a fathers day treat!
Andrew
Wow, this sounds delicious! You had me at Vodka! #delish #nomnomnom #yum!
Jenna Wood
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.
