Sweet Tarts Candy Moonshine Recipe
Description
The Sweet Tarts Candy Moonshine recipe infuses high-proof Everclear alcohol with the sweet, tart flavors of Sweet Tarts candy. By dividing the candies by color and combining them in separate mason jars with Everclear, the infusions develop distinct flavors influenced by the candy color varieties. The jars are shaken once or twice daily over one to two weeks to fully dissolve the candies and develop flavor intensity. After infusion, the liquid is strained to remove any remaining candy residue, yielding a smooth, brightly flavored moonshine.
The infusion captures both the sweetness and the tartness of the candies, resulting in a strong, flavorful spirit that can be consumed in small quantities due to its high alcohol content. Since it is infused with candy rather than brewed, the flavor may vary depending on the candy amount and infusion length.
Once prepared, the moonshine can be stored sealed in a cool, dark place for up to a month, making it suitable for gifting or occasional use. The preparation requires attention during the shaking phase but no cooking or distillation, making it accessible to those with the right ingredients and containers.
Ingredients
- 4 small 8oz- 10oz mason jars
- 6 cups Everclear
- 1-2 cups sweet tarts candy
Instructions
- Separate sweet tarts by color. Add about 1/3 cup sweet tarts to each mason jar, one color candy per jar. You can add up to 1/2 cup candy if you like an especially flavorful drink.
- Fill each mason jar with Everclear (about 1 cup) and seal the lid.
- Shake each closed and sealed jar vigorously for one minute, then store in a cool dark place.
- Check the jars daily, shaking each for about a minute. Keep stored, shaking 1-2 times per day for about two weeks.
- After 1-2 weeks, remove lids and strain the liquid to remove any candy residue.
- Return to jars — your moonshine is ready to enjoy!
- Since it's pretty potent stuff, you probably won't use it all at once. No worries — you can keep your moonshine sealed in jars in a cool place for up to a month.
