Description:
Imagine a refreshing drink that captures the essence of apple pie in a bottle—perfect for sharing around a campfire during those memorable camping trips. This recipe is a well-kept secret from Pacific Northwest SCA camping events, promising a sip that even hints at the taste of apple pie crust. Don’t miss out on this delightful concoction!

Ingredients:

  • 16 ounces vodka
  • 8 ounces lemon juice
  • 4 teaspoons apple pie spice
  • 8 cinnamon sticks (plus more for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup organic apple cider (optional for sweetness adjustment)
  • 1/4 cup regular apple cider (optional for flavor adjustment)
  • 2 tablespoons organic cider vinegar (optional, for tanginess)

Instructions:

  1. Mix Liquid Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl or pitcher, combine the vodka, lemon juice, and apple pie spice. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

  2. Prepare and Refrigerate: Transfer the mixture into a 32-ounce bottle. Add the cinnamon sticks for extra flavor. Refrigerate the bottle for at least a week before serving. (Alternatively, storing it in a cool garage can also work well.)

  3. Serve and Enjoy: Apple Pie in a Bottle is best enjoyed as a communal drink shared straight from the bottle among friends gathered around a campfire. It’s a social drink that enhances the camping experience with its flavorful, pie-inspired essence.

Notes and Tips:

  • If you prefer a less sweet apple pie flavor, adjust by adding more organic or regular apple cider to taste.
  • Organic apple cider is recommended for its distinct flavor and texture due to higher pulp content.
  • When selecting vodka, opt for a higher proof variety for a drier taste. Absolut Red Label is suggested, but other high-quality, high-proof vodkas can be substituted if needed.
  • Consider trying potato vodka for a potentially different taste profile, ensuring it suits your preference before using.

This recipe not only promises a unique drinking experience but also adds a touch of homemade charm to any outdoor gathering. Whether for camping trips or cozy evenings by the fire, Apple Pie in a Bottle is sure to be a hit among friends and family alike.
