In a large stock pot, combine all of the ingredients EXCEPT the grain alcohol and vodka.
Simmer until all ingredients combine, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Add grain alcohol and vodka to cooled mixture.
Line a funnel with several layers of cheese cloth.
Ladle moonshine through the funnel into clean mason jars, leaving a 1/2 inch head. You want to filter out any remaining solids. (Cheese cloth may need to be changed after 1-2 jars)
Place lids on jars and allow to sit in refrigerator for 1 month before enjoying.
Please enjoy responsibly.
