Made it

It started as a mad Christmas idea, declaring that we could do better than what was out there; coupled with some encouragement from our good friends at Colwith Farm Distillery, we produced our first Moonshine, Charred Maple.

Drink it

Our goal was to make Moonshine that was good enough to drink neat; we believe we’ve succeeded.

But that isn’t to say we don’t also love it in cocktails.

Here are a few of our favourites.

Thyme to Shine

  • 2 Measures White Dog

  • 1 Measure Lemon Juice

  • 1 Measure Thyme Infused Simple Syrup

  • 1 Egg White

  • Splash of Orange Bitters

  • Garnish: Thyme Sprig & Orange Twist

To make the Thyme Syrup, dissolve an equal amount of sugar into hot water and add a few sprigs of thyme.

(As we’ve found this cocktail very moreish, we usually do 250g sugar and 250ml water and store it in one of our 500ml jars with a few sprigs of thyme. It will last about a week in the fridge.)

In a shaker with some ice, add all the ingredients and shake until a foam forms. Pour into a glass and add a sprig of thyme and some orange peel to decorate.

Charred Old Fashoned
