Moonshine was originally used to refer to high-proof spirits that were distilled outside of legal restrictions. Moonshine production became illegal in 1791 when taxes were imposed on whiskey production. In order to evade taxes, whiskey consumers produced and purchased moonshine at night under the moonlight. Many people think this is where Moonshine's name originates. Legalization of this traditional spirit led to its recent surge in popularity. Moonshine is clear because it is unaged whiskey. Moonshine was typically created in a handmade still from maize mash and then bottled in a mason jar. Originally introduced to the United States in the 18th century by Scottish and Irish immigrants, moonshine is currently one of the most popular drinks in America. This list focuses on flavored moonshine and the wild flavors that they have come out with in recent years. Drink up and stay warm!
