Ok, maybe I'm making this more complicated than I have to but could I get a little help figuring this out? This year we've made "Apple Pie Liquor".. we bottle it in mason jars and give it as gifts for Christmas. Tastes sooo good! I want to make labels this year with the ABV on it..
the recipe consists of..
1.5 gal Apple Juice @ 0% ABV
1 gal Apple Cider @ 0% ABV
6 cups Everclear @ 95% ABV
1 cup Buttershots @ 15% ABV
1 cup Gold Schlager @ 43.5% ABV
So what would my total ABV be? My calculations put me at about 13% but that sounds too low.
If anyone's interested in the rest of the recipe (yields about 12 qts)..
Bring Apple Juice + Cider + Spices to boil, simmer 20 minutes
(Spices: 2 tsp apple pie spice, 10 cinnamon sticks, 2 cup brown sugar)
Cool to room temp, add alcohol + 2 tbs vanilla, mix thoroughly, transfer to jars.
