MtMan-List: Apple Pie Recipe

[Barbara Smith <barbsmth@portland.quik.com>]

Klahowya Tillicum,

This recipe came to me from Barefoot Woman, Crazy George Passon's wife
(bourgeois of the Department of the Columbia party):

1 gallon Apple Cider
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup Honey
5 Cinnamon Sticks
7 Whole Cloves
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Simmer all for 45 minutes.  Will reduce slightly.

Strain out spices.

Let cool to room temperature.

Add 1 fifth Everclear.

The longer it sets, the smoother it gets.  Don't never go bad.

Now, I've done this with high-proof rum and vodka, when Everclear not
available.  Also real good.  And I've done it with cherry, pear, and
peach juice, as well.  I don't recommend the cherry, tasted like cough
syrup to me, but it went over real well at camp.  I like to add Allspice
to mine, since I'm partial to it.

Good luck and have fun!  :-)

YMDS,
