Last year while vacationing in Maggie Valley, NC we discovered a phenomenal restaurant, The Moonshine Grill. This restaurant cooks up wood-fire grilled deliciousness! From the steaks to the meatloaf there wasn’t an item ordered that didn’t taste uh-mazing. Oh, and the Moonshine Punch that served was yummy, too. So yummy in fact, I decided to recreate it at home myself!
Strawberry Moonshine Punch
The Moonshine Grill serves several types of moonshine, but the one that is most dear to their heart is a local western Carolina moonshine, Howling Moon. At the urging of our server, we sampled the Howling Moon apple pie and strawberry moonshine. Both flavors were great! They are definately a type of spirit that you can’t find on the shelves here in Florida. So, we made a pit stop at the liquor store on the way back to the cabin.
The restaurant served an apple pie moonshine punch, which was great. But, I wanted to create something fun with the strawberry moonshine. I kept the ingredients simple for the punch, because the moonshine itself has its own strong strawberry flavor. The ingredients consist of fresh strawberry puree, ginger ale and strawberry moonshine. Mix them all together and you get a delicious drink that is perfect after a long day of work and kids.
- 8 oz ginger ale
- 6 oz strawberry puree
- 2 shots strawberry Howling Moon Moonshine
- Mix all ingredients in a mason jar and stir together with a straw. Enjoy!
Not a drinker of alcohol but this looks like a super easy recipe. I use strawberry puree in my protein shakes in the mornings. 🙂
I am 100% anti-alcohol so I’m with Avry, all I can say is I like strawberry!
Oh boy. This looks pretty dang amazing, and I want to have one about RIGHT NOW!
Moonshine normally doesn’t sound good to me, but Strawberry Moonshine does!
This looks and sounds sooooo good. I’m going to have to try some strawberry moonshine!
Would you believe this southern girl has never had moonshine! This makes me want to try it out though!
This looks so refreshing right now. I’ve never had moonshine, and I’ve definitely never associated it with fruity girly drinks. It sounds delicious!
It does look and sound yummy. I’m not a drinker either, but I bet I could find a good substitution.
I had no idea they sold moonshine. LOL It looks tasty!
That looks so good! I’think this could be a summer favorite! Yum!
I don’t drink liquor but this sounds like something I might want my guests to try at the vow renewal!
I am not a drinker, but that drink looks delicious! I wonder if I could leave the moonshine out?
Soooooo….. we get to have this on our trip, right? LOL Looks delicious! I love a good moonshine!
I totally have some I will bring tomorrow!!!!!!!!!
I had a Moonshine something or other in a restaurant once and it was delish! I’d definitely slurp that down!
This looks amazing, I was sold by the pictures must try this for my luncheon.
I don’t drink but I would love to try a strawberry refreshment on our hot Texas summer days!
