Is it possible to insist on moonshine almonds. Recipes and features of making moonshine on almonds

Fragrant almonds are actively used in cooking, because they are added to different dishes: desserts, pastries, salads and others. Also, moonshine can be infused on almonds, which allows you to get a high-quality aromatic drink. Many people perceive almonds as a type of nut, but in reality this is not the case, since it is a seed of one of the types of inedible plums. Almond moonshine is an alcoholic beverage that should be prepared strictly according to the rules, since an excessive amount of seeds can hopelessly ruin the taste of alcohol.

Theory

There are two types of almonds. Wild is called a fruit with a pronounced taste and aroma. The stone of wild almonds contains a large amount of amygdalin, which can be split into a list of constituents, including hydrocyanic acid. It is not recommended to insist on alcohol at home on wild almonds, since such a drink can be poisonous.

Moonshine on almonds

In cultivated almonds, amygdalin is contained in small amounts in the form of traces. Such a bone can be safely used for brewing moonshine.

Recipes

Before considering the recipes for moonshine on almonds and starting to implement them, you need to take care of the availability of high-quality almonds.

You can insist moonshine on almonds according to this recipe:

  1. Take 1 liter of strong moonshine (50%), 5-7 nuts of peeled sweet almonds, 10 grams of black raisins, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 5 grams of oak chips. Important: Some people believe that plum or apricot seeds can be substituted for almonds. In fact, it is impossible to insist on these components of the fruit on moonshine, since the drink may turn out to be poisonous.
  2. First you need to take oak chips and pour a little boiling water over them. After a day, the water can be drained from them.
  3. The resulting water is added to the moonshine, after which sugar or syrup from it is added to the workpiece and insisted for several hours.
  4. After that, almonds and raisins are added to the moonshine and water. The mixture is thoroughly shaken, the container is closed with a lid and the drink is infused at a temperature of 20 degrees for three weeks.
  5. The resulting infusion is filtered through cheesecloth and again defended for a month.

The finished drink will have a pleasant tart almond flavor.

Having high-quality almonds and moonshine at home, you can prepare an analogue of the popular liqueur called "Amaretto". To obtain such a drink, you should take 0.75 liters of strong moonshine, 100 grams of peeled almonds, the same number of plum kernels and apricot kernels... Also, to prepare a drink, you will need 500 milliliters of filtered water and 350 grams of sugar.

The drink is prepared according to the recipe in stages:

  1. First, the peeled fruit kernels are dried in a skillet, but without adding oil. The nucleoli in the pan must be constantly stirred.
  2. When the nucleoli have cooled, they must be passed through a meat grinder and added together with almonds to the moonshine. In the meantime, you need to prepare syrup from sugar and water, cool it and pour into the tincture. The workpiece is placed in a dark place for a week, after which it is taken out and the nucleoli are filtered.

The drink is infused without seeds for a month. Before drinking the drink, you can add vanilla and coffee to your taste.

There are moonshiners who prefer to prepare alcoholic drinks quickly and with a minimum list of ingredients. Such moonshiners will certainly like this recipe, because, according to its rules, only 2 components are taken to make moonshine on almonds. This is 1.5 liters of double moonshine with a strength of 50%, as well as half a glass of roasted almond seeds.

First you need to fill the bones with moonshine, seal the container with the blank with a lid and put it in a dark cool place for 40-45 days. Shake the contents of the container thoroughly every week. After 40-45 days, the drink should be filtered through several layers of gauze.

If there are no almond seeds at home, then you can use edible oil almonds. For 1 liter of moonshine, take 3 drops of oil, but not more, since it can spoil the taste of the drink, making it bitter.

You can also use special additives and essences to make almond moonshine. These products can be purchased at stores that sell distilling products.

Ready-made almond drinks can be stored for several months, but only if they are poured into glass containers.

Almonds are a fragrant and unique product in terms of taste, which is widely used in cooking. It is added to baked goods, salads, and preserves. But gourmet distillers have found another worthy use for him - the infusion of moonshine on its kernels.

Attention: hydrocyanic acid

Since almonds are not a nut, as many people mistakenly believe, but the kernel of an inedible plum seed, it has some dosage restrictions. By origin, it can be domesticated (sweet) or wild, with a bitter taste and a pronounced aroma. The wild contains a large amount of hydrocyanic acid, a high concentration of which can lead to poisoning of the body and spoiled taste of moonshine. That is why it is not recommended to insist moonshine on wild almond kernels. Use domesticated. It has a sweetish taste and a lower concentration of hydrocyanic acid.

Important! Sugar is a common antagonist found in every home. If you want to get an original and unsurpassed drink in its aromatic properties, but are afraid to use almonds, replace it with an aromatic additive or essence.

Almond recipes

There are many recipes for making moonshine with almonds, unique in its aroma. Using some tricks with adding a kernel to moonshine, you can not only emphasize the taste of alcohol, but also assign it a supporting role, enhancing the taste of the product.

The most common recipe requires the following ingredients:

  • alcohol base 50 degrees - one liter;
  • almonds - six to eight pieces;
  • raisins - 10 grams;
  • sugar - one or two tablespoons;
  • oak chips - five grams.

Important! You should not add kernels of other fruit trees to the moonshine instead of almonds. You can hopelessly spoil alcohol by saturating it with toxic substances.

Preparation:

  1. Pour boiling water (it should cover the shavings) and leave to infuse for a day.
  2. Strain the infused water from the chips, add sugar and moonshine to it, leave for four to five hours.
  3. Add almonds and raisins to the resulting mixture, mix everything thoroughly, close the bottle and leave for about three weeks, observing the temperature regime of about 20 degrees.
  4. After the allotted time, strain the moonshine from the nuts and raisins, leave for about four more weeks. Almond moonshine ready to eat.

"Amaretto" at home:

  • moonshine - 750 ml;
  • almond kernel, plum and apricot - 100 grams each;
  • purified water - 0.5 liters;
  • sugar - 350 grams.

Preparation:

  1. Fry the plum and apricot kernels in a skillet (no oil) or in the oven.
  2. Cool, mince and add to the moonshine along with the almonds.
  3. Make syrup from sugar and water, cool, combine with moonshine.
  4. It is necessary to infuse the resulting mixture for 7-10 days, then filter the filling from impurities and stand for another 30 days. The liquor is ready.

The easiest recipe for making almond tincture:

  • moonshine 50% - 1.5 liters;
  • almonds - 0.5 cups.

Fry the almonds in a dry frying pan or in the oven. Pour the prepared kernels with moonshine. Close tightly, leave for 35-40 days. Stir the contents of the bottle every week, and when the time is right, strain the tincture.

Almond kernels can be replaced with almond oil (three drops for one liter of alcohol).

Important! Don't confuse cooking almond oil with perfume oil. To avoid misunderstandings, purchase everything necessary ingredients in specialized distilling shops.

Experienced moonshiners insist on almonds not only moonshine, but also liqueur, cognac and wine. It is better for a novice distiller to immediately use almond oil or essence, so as not to spoil the product with wild almonds or adding more of it. It is recommended to store the finished drink in a glass container so that it does not acquire an unpleasant aftertaste. Almond tincture has not only a unique aroma, but also due to its properties is ideal as a medicine.

Moonshine-3l, black tea top grade- 1 tablespoon sugar 3 tablespoons, bay leaf - 5-6 pcs. , allspice - 5 peas, black pepper - 5 peas, red pepper - 0.5 pod, lemon balm 1 tbsp. l, vanillin on the tip of a knife. We mix all the ingredients, fill with moonshine and leave for 10 days in a dark place, then drain the finished tincture, filter and bottle it, use it.

Recipe for using oak chips;

For 1 liter of moonshine with a strength of 40-45 degrees, put about 5-10 grams oak chips and a teaspoon of sugar. Place the container in a dark place. Shake regularly and open the lid as alcohol needs a regular small supply of oxygen. Somewhere in two weeks you will feel how the smell of moonshine begins to change, noble notes of cognac appear (I didn’t go to the bank every day to feel this pleasant smell). After a month, the product is ready for use. But I repeat, you can leave it to infuse for a longer period.

Moonshine 1l, cinnamon - 0.5 tbsp, grated nutmeg - 1 tbsp. l. , vanillin 1 tbsp. sugar 2 cups. Cinnamon, grated nutmeg and vanillin are mixed, filled with moonshine and infused for 2 weeks. Then the tincture is drained, filtered, sugar is added, put on fire, brought to a boil and cooled, and then bottled.

Moonshine coloring methods

To obtain brown moonshine, take granulated sugar, melt it in a copper bowl and cook until dark. We dilute the resulting solution with hot water or moonshine, also hot. The solution can be stored tightly closed in a glass container.

Distillation of the mash with galangal root gives the moonshine a light brown color.

If you are going to sweeten the moonshine, then tint should be done only after sweetening, so that the color and transparency of the moonshine does not deteriorate.

Sweetening moonshine

Let's prepare a special syrup. We take 1kg. sugar, pour in 1 liter. water, cook, removing the foam until it stops forming. We cool and insist for 2 weeks, so that all the sediment goes to the bottom.

When moonshine is mixed with syrup or honey, a chemical reaction occurs and the solution heats up. You need to wait until gas evolution is complete. Then we throw several tablets of activated carbon into the solution and shake vigorously. Then we insist for 2 hours at room temperature and filter through a thin cloth. The resulting drink is packaged in different containers and kept for three days at a temperature of 3-4 ° C. The resulting drink will have a pleasant taste and almost complete absence of alcoholic aftertaste.

Jam is also used to sweeten moonshine. It is taken in the proportion: 3 liters of moonshine to 4 teaspoons of jam.

In addition to the taste we need, we also need a certain color of moonshine.

If we infuse moonshine with saffron and add a little juice from blueberries or blueberries, we get a golden orange (orange) color. Also, this color is obtained by infusing moonshine on an orange peel, walnut partitions or an unripe orange peel.

Saffron is used in yellow. By adjusting its amount, you can get different shades of yellow. To obtain a yellow color, moonshine can also be infused with lemon balm, veronica, mint, or using parsley, celery or horseradish leaves.

To give the red color, the moonshine is infused with dried blueberries. You can grind tartar and food carmine paint to a powder and mix in a 1: 6 ratio, then dissolve in hot water. Filter the resulting mixture and add to the moonshine.

For the scarlet color, you need to prepare a special dye. Cook 4g. food paint powder and 4g. powder of purified tartar in 1.1 liter of water. Defend, filter through cheesecloth. We add to the moonshine in the amount, depending on what shade of scarlet you want to get.

We get the purple color by infusing moonshine on sunflower seeds. You can also tint the moonshine with carmine and strain it through the flowers of yarrow or thigh, or add a little, literally a few drops, of a thick broth of sandalwood or blueberries.

Straining the moonshine through a yarrow or thigh-root, without tint, gives it a pale blue color.

Infusion on cornflower flowers gives the moonshine a blue color.

Using different varieties jams can be obtained in shades of red, yellow and purple.

Now let's get into the green color - like absinthe... We take chervil, finely grind, put 4 handfuls in a thin cloth and filter the moonshine through a funnel with chervil. The second method involves the infusion of moonshine with black currant leaves. Green color can also be obtained by infusing moonshine with onion feathers or parsley leaf juice.

If you will use green onions, then first wash it, then put it in hot water and boil it 2 times. After that, transfer the onion to cold water. Place the feathers in a thin cloth or cheesecloth and squeeze out the juice. Place the juice in a silver pouring spoon and cook until the juice is halved. Now the resulting paint can be infused with moonshine

In order to get the moonshine of the taste we require, we need to insist it on a plant, then distill it and insist again on the same plant.

Experiment with the flavor of moonshine using a variety of raw materials and ingredients from herbal supplements.

Moonshine, how strong alcoholic beverage, reacts strongly to additives, so you should not overdo it with them. So that you can determine the taste of future moonshine when using certain additives - we give a table of taste characteristics when brewing moonshine for at least two weeks.
Bitter orange peel 50 - 100
Bitter lemon peel 60 - 250
Bitter orange peel 2.5 - 50
Bitter spicy rosemary 0.5 - 1
Bitter spicy saffron 0.1 - 0.5
Star anise bitter-bitter 3 - 20
Bitter cinnamon 3 - 15
Bitter vanilla 0.5 - 2
Bitter bay leaf 0.5 - 2
Spicy-hot cardamom 4 - 20
Spicy-hot nutmeg 3 - 6
Allspice pepper moderately hot 3 - 6
Hot ginger 1.5 - 12
Hot cloves 0.6 - 3
Hot black pepper 2 - 24

The substances listed in the table can be combined with each other in certain proportions (except for saffron). If you increase the amount of additives by 20-30%, then you can make moonshine in 2-3 days, but it is better not to get involved in this too much.

To impart aroma to moonshine, aromatic substances infused with alcohol are used. In order to extract substances from plants, they must be insisted on moonshine, pre-chopped. Insist until the moonshine takes all the aromatic substances from the plant. Moonshine, for infusion, must have a strength of 45-50 ° C. The solution must be periodically decanted, then re-add flavoring substances and shake, and the more times we do this, the higher the concentration of the infusion we will get. You can boil raw materials in a sealed container while boiling for 10-15 minutes.

Tinctures are usually made within 3-5 weeks. But if you increase the temperature to 50-60 ° C, then you can reduce the infusion time to 5-8 days. So do early ripeners.

To get a tincture with rich aromatic substances and the desired aroma, but not to change the taste of the drink, you need to distill the broth from the raw materials.

Infusions are also distilled. We take finely crushed spice to your taste, fill it with boiling water in the proportion of 400g. spices for 3.5 liters of water, close tightly and insist for 24 hours. Then add 2.5 liters of water and distill. It is necessary to distill until the moment when the smell of the spice begins to disappear. After that we add new spices and distill again. Then you can overtake again. We use the obtained "triple" water for moonshine in a proportion of 200 g. water for 1.2 liters of moonshine to obtain a taste similar to the taste when distilled with spices.

It is not recommended to add plants and spices to the mash itself, because the aroma will not be saturated. It is best to insist separately water with spices or make a decoction, and only then add to the mash.

If we cook the mash in flavored water, then we will beat off the smell of booze and give the moonshine a good aroma.

Blueberry tincture

Pour a kilogram of blueberries in three liter jar and fill it with moonshine. After a month you can use it. If you stand for half a year on oak chips, the taste changes dramatically for the better. The color of the tincture is almost purple, it may be that if the concentration of blueberries is reduced, the color will become lighter, but I do not think that this will affect the taste for the better.

You can and should experiment with proportions.

Top up with moonshine or diluted alcohol, close again and rest for 3-4 days. You can drink it right away, but if you let it stand, the dregs will settle and the view will be more beautiful. And the taste too.
