Midnight Moon Watermelon is a flavored moonshine from Piedmont Distillers in Madison, North Carolina, blending the brand's legendary moonshine with ripe watermelon and bottled at 70 proof (35% ABV).
Midnight Moon is built on the family moonshine recipe of NASCAR legend Junior Johnson, who became part owner of Piedmont Distillers in 2007 and introduced the brand with the distillery. Watermelon brings that heritage to the ultimate summer fruit.
The base is Midnight Moon's moonshine, triple distilled from American corn, blended with watermelon for a ripe, juicy flavor. It comes in the brand's signature mason jar, and its label promises a summer drink that is guaranteed seedless.
Expect fresh, ripe watermelon on the nose, a sweet, juicy palate with a clean corn spirit underneath, and a smooth, light finish. At 70 proof it is easy to sip chilled.
Serve Midnight Moon Watermelon ice cold straight from the jar, or pour it over crushed ice with a squeeze of lime. Mix it with lemonade for a backyard cooler, top it with club soda and fresh mint for a light spritz, or shake it with lime juice and triple sec for a watermelon Margarita-style drink. It is great in a party punch with sparkling wine and fresh watermelon cubes, or frozen into slushies on a hot day. Pair it with barbecue, grilled chicken, spicy wings, feta and watermelon salad or fish tacos. The mason jar makes it a fun gift for cookouts, tailgates and anyone who loves Southern moonshine traditions.
