moonswine mary
In the Appalachian Mountains there are still distillers who produced and distributed whiskey. The distillation was done at night to avoid discovery, hence the word Moonshine. Moonshine is typically made with corn mash as the main ingredient. Now days you can buy Moonshine legally under different names the most popular is Everclear. This recipe goes back to the times when Moonshine was still produced illegally. The odd thing about this recipe is that the Moonshine is infused with roasted jalapenos and bacon for six days before using.
