Crock-Pot Pineapple Moonshine

Another great “moonshine” recipe to make using pineapple juice is this recipe for Crock-Pot Pineapple Moonshine! Remember this is a strong alcoholic drink and you can use either Everclear (if it is sold in your area) or vodka.

Crock-Pot Pineapple Moonshine

Slow Cooker Pineapple Moonshine

Making flavored “moonshine” in your slow cooker is so much fun! We have made several other yummy flavors in the past too and this one is so good!

Just keep in mind that this is totally an adult only beverage because it contains some strong alcohol and of course we would like to remind all our readers to please drink responsibly!

Additionally, I know that whenever we say these are moonshine recipes we always get comments from our readers that they are not really moonshine because we are not distilling moonshine in copper kettles in our backyards or something.

You’re right, we are not. Instead these are flavored alcohol drinks where we infuse strong grain alcohol such as Everclear or vodka with juices, spices etc.

And it’s OK because you know what…we are all adults here and these recipes are so GOOD!

While we like to store our moonshine in canning jars for the full “hillbilly” effect you really can just store the flavored moonshine in any clean (sterilized is good too) bottle or jar too. You can even funnel it back into the Everclear or vodka bottles.

There is no canning required for this recipe. The super high alcohol and sugar content prevents mold and bacteria from growing.

You can store the jars of moonshine for up to 1 year in a cool dry location (like your pantry) and in fact the moonshine tastes better after it has sat for a couple of months.

Sip responsibly!

  • ¾ Liter Everclear Grain Alcohol (Or Vodka)

Instructions

  • Add pineapple juice and sugar to a 5 quart or larger slow cooker.

  • Turn slow cooker off and allow mixture to cool completely to room temperature.
  • Add in Everclear alcohol (or vodka) and mix well.
  • Ladle mixture into sterilized canning jars, placing canning jar lids and rings on jars until “finger tight”

    how long do you need to let it sit before consuming? I have made the Apple Pie one and that had to sit for a month. Please advise soonest as I would like to make this for a BBQ and need to know how much lead time I have.

    Thanks.

      It is best to let it sit for 30 days. The alcohol will take on more of the pineapple flavor…but you can consume immediately if you like.

      Sometimes more liquid will evaporate during the crock-pot stage. You could add in a little more juice, or just remember that your Pineapple Moonshine might be a little stronger.

        I have some berrie mix that I did for a drink. Strawberries,blueberries,rasberries and blackberries.The recipe called for you to blend then strain. Was standing for hours doing this. I was not going to throw any of it away. I put it in freezer bags in the freezer to keep.The pineapple was so good I was wondering if you had a recipe that I could use this mix for? Not sure about how much suger and berrie mix to use in the crock pot. Would be wonderful if you had any ideas?

          If it is a pulp, I would add in either apple juice or pineapple juice then cook it in the crock-pot for the same time as the Pineapple Moonshine. Cool the mixture, add the liquor and put in jars with lids. It would come out like tropical drink!

      No you do not need to seal the jars or vacuum seal the lids. The alcohol will make the liquid shelf stable. Just twist a lid on and let it sit or drink immediately

      The lids in this recipe are not sealed. Because of the very high alcohol content in this Pineapple Moonshine recipe you do not need to water bath can the jars. Just make sure your jars and lids are sterilized, pour in the moonshine, screw the lids on tight and store just the way they are.

      Hey Todd. Maybe using brown sugar would give you more of that “upside down” flavor? I know when I make pineapple upside down cake I use brown sugar on the bottom of the cake pan. So I think maybe that would work. If you give it try be sure to come back and let us know how it turned out for you!
