The Syrup:
3 Cups Plain Whiskey of your Choice
1 1/2 Cups Sugar
To make the syrup, you need to combine the whiskey and sugar cook over low-medium low heat and stir constantly. It should condense down to 2 cups. Set aside.
The Candy:
3 Cups of Plain Whiskey
4 Cups Flavored Whiskey
1/2 C Sugar
1/2 Cup Corn syrup
To Make The Hard Candy
In a medium Saucepan, pour in the plain whiskey, set heat to low and add sugar, stirring constantly. When the whiskey and sugar start to boil, add in the Whiskey Syrup that had been made. Stirring constantly until the mixture starts to boil violently. Add in the corn syrup, mixing frequently until it starts to look foamy. At this point, add in the flavored whiskey, in my case, it was Fireball. stir frequently until the mixture reaches hard cracked stage. You can use either a candy thermometer or the cold water method. I prefer the cold water method. Which is when a small amount of the liquid is dropped into a small amount of cold water, it should turn hard. If it is not completely hard and still a little chewy, then the mixture needs to cook a little bit longer to reach hard crack stage.
Once the mixture has reached the hard crack stage, pour onto wax paper or into a hard candy mold and chill until set. Once set, remove from the refrigerator or freezer and break apart or take out of the molds. Cover with a light sprinkling of powdered sugar and serve.
Thank you so much for watching! Have a great Day :-D
