Fall Sangria
At first glance, the ingredient list may lead you to wonder what’s missing – perhaps a splash of Everclear? Fear not, for while it may not be included in this recipe, you can easily substitute it for the Grenache. Just keep everything else consistent, and you’ll still be left with the signature warm, rich, and fruity flavors that define sangria. The only notable difference will be the type of liquor used, which, when swapped out, doesn’t drastically alter the overall flavor profile.
That being said, using Everclear will undoubtedly give your drink a more pronounced kick.
Chai Liqueur
In place of traditional vodka or rum, Everclear takes center stage in this drink’s recipe. This substitution yields a sweet and spiced liqueur reminiscent of Kahlua, although slightly lighter in color due to its tea-based foundation. The result can be enjoyed straight or over ice, but I find it particularly versatile as a base for crafting other innovative cocktails.
Fizzy Dog
Everclear’s signature cocktail is a refreshing concoction that has gained widespread popularity. With only four ingredients and a mere moment to prepare, this drink is as easy as it is enjoyable. Its zesty and fizzy qualities will leave your senses tingling, from the tickle in your nose to the explosion of flavors on your palate. As with many Everclear drinks, this one packs an intense punch, making it a sipper’s delight rather than a gulper’s nightmare.
Homemade Limoncello
Limoncello has experienced a surge in popularity over the past few years, with its bright and tangy flavor captivating everyone’s taste buds. With this recipe, you can create your own limoncello at home. Interestingly, the ingredients are identical to those used in the lemonade moonshine recipe – water, lemons, sugar, and Everclear. So, what sets these two drinks apart? The key difference lies in the infusion process.
For the limoncello, you’ll need to allow the mixture of lemons and Everclear to sit for at least four days, which allows the flavors to meld together seamlessly. This prolonged infusion period results in a zingier and slightly more bitter taste profile compared to the spiked lemonade. Despite this, it’s still a refreshing drink that pairs well with cocktails.
Chocolate Moonshine
Indulge in the rich, velvety goodness of chocolate moonshine, where the sweetness of chocolate harmonizes with the boldness of booze. If you can tolerate the distinct taste of alcohol, you’ll find this treat utterly irresistible. For a smoother experience, vodka is a suitable choice; however, I highly recommend using Everclear for its robust flavor and quicker intoxicating effects.
That being said, I’ve experimented with whipped cream vodka and discovered that it’s just a tad too delicious – be warned!
Chocolate Coffee Moonshine
This indulgent treat combines three of life’s greatest pleasures: rich chocolate, bold coffee, and smooth liquor. The perfect trifecta for anyone seeking a sweet, caffeinated, and spirited pick-me-up. While there may be other combinations that rival this one, it’s hard to deny the allure of such a potent blend. One caveat to keep in mind – this drink is unapologetically intense. Envision the most concentrated espresso you’ve ever experienced, then add a generous splash of high-proof spirits.
Yes, it will leave a lasting impression, even with the luxurious addition of chocolate.
