Original MOONSHINE Holiday Cocktails

The Stillhouse Distillery of Culpeper Virginia tells BourbonBlog.com the new clear whiskey hitting the market in the US this Fall. Original MOONSHINE is a versatile new spirit, enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in a variety of mixed cocktails, including these holiday cocktails we are including below. Original MOONSHINE is 80 proof, all-natural, gluten-free, charcoal-filtered and distilled four times in a Prohibition-era copper pot still. This is the same authentic process that has been passed down discreetly for hundreds of years.

of moonshine to it, then fill with 6oz of boiling water. Garnish with
a cinnamon stick and stir well.

Juniper Shine:

1 ½ ounce Original Moonshine ¾ ounce lemon juice
3/4 ounce juniper

seconds. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with ½ of a rosemary
