Strawberry Moonshine

(Courtesy of myincrediblerecipes.com)

Ingredients:
4 c. sugar
12 c. water
4 c. fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 pints strawberry puree
5 c. 190 proof Everclear

Directions:
Place a large pot on low heat and pour in water and sugar.  Stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved.  Remove from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Wash and pat dry the strawberries.  Remove the stems and dice.  Blend the strawberries in a blender.  Mix the strawberry puree and lemon juice in with the sugar water.

Add the Everclear and stir well.  Strain the liquor mixture and make sure to remove all pulp.

Pour the mixture into mason jars and let sit in the refrigerator at least 2 weeks before drinking (the longer it sits, the better it will be).
