Good Ol’ Tennessee Moonshine: Where It All Began
Before peach moonshine came in flavored jars, moonshine was a true backwoods tradition. Distilled deep in the hills by the light of the moon, it earned the nickname white lightning for its strong, unfiltered kick.
Made from corn and cooked in copper stills, early moonshine was raw and powerful. It was also illegal for a long stretch of Tennessee history.
Today, moonshine is legal, smoother, and comes in all kinds of flavors—apple pie, cherry, blackberry, and of course, peach moonshine.
So while this Peach Moonshine Cocktail is dressed up with fruity flair, it still has deep roots in the Tennessee hills.
