Instructions: Crafting Citrus Elixir

  1. Moonshine Magic: Begin by selecting a clean and sterile glass container with an airtight lid to hold your moonshine creation.
  2. Citrus Symphony: In the glass container, combine the moonshine and orange juice, allowing the bright citrus flavors to mingle with the spirit’s essence.
  3. Creamy Infusion: Add the heavy cream to the mixture, creating a velvety foundation for the creamsicle profile.
  4. Vanilla Elegance: Stir in the vanilla simple syrup, pure vanilla extract, and orange zest. These ingredients will elevate the flavor complexity of your elixir.

  6. Gentle Integration: Seal the container with the airtight lid and gently shake it to ensure all the flavors are well integrated.
  7. Age and Marinate: Place the container in a cool, dark place and let the moonshine mixture age for at least a week. This allows the flavors to mature and intertwine.
  8. Sip with Delight: After the aging period, your Orange Creamsicle Moonshine is ready to be enjoyed. Pour it into glasses over ice and garnish with orange slices and vanilla beans for an elegant touch.

Tips: Elevating Your Citrus Creation

  • Experiment with different ratios of orange juice and cream to achieve your desired balance of tanginess and creaminess.
