- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves

- 2 oz vanilla vodka

Pro Tip
Pro Tip: Strain it through a coffee filter before jarring. It keeps the pumpkin from settling into sludge at the bottom of the jar.
*Calculated proof: about 19 percent ABV in the finished quart jar, based on 150 proof moonshine.
