Jolly Rancher Moonshine

We hope you enjoy this high proof mix of Jolly Rancher deliciousness.  In our opinion, there’s not a better way to have a legal moonshine experience without needing a lot of technical knowledge about distillation and fermentation.

In our opinion, Jolly Rancher Moonshine tastes much better with age!  It was yummy at 2 weeks….but at 4 weeks it was heavenly!  So be sure to make your moonshine a few weeks ahead of any big event or holiday for optimum flavor.

NOTE: Jolly Rancher Moonshine contains more alcohol than it tastes like so please exercise caution and moderation while consuming.

Southern Peach Cocktail Recipe

Olive Garden Copycat Fonduta

by 1 Comment

This Olive Garden Copycat Fonduta is my favorite appetizer of all time.  You just can’t beat baked gooey cheese served with toasted Italian bread!

The recipe calls for just regular mozzarella and provolone cheese.  It’s a personal preference, but I like to use smoked versions of these cheeses.  Just a hint of that smokiness can make a big difference in taste!

In a large bowl, combine the sour cream with the mozzarella cheese, provolone cheese, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.

Mix together and then pour into the prepared cast iron skillet.

Bake for 15 minutes, until the mixture is melted and bubbly. If you’d like the top extra browned, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, but make sure to keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn.

Garnish with diced tomatoes and parsley.  Bake the bread slices for 5 minutes then serve immediately.
