Ole Smoky Distillery's limited-edition Moonshine Mandarins are a nostalgic fruit treat for adults that's ready for snacking or garnishing summer drinks, offering a fun way to spice up the enjoyment of summer and beat the heat. "This isn't your grandma's fruit cup," said Stephanie Moraine, marketing director, Ole Smoky Distillery. "We took the sweetness of mandarins, dropped them in our smooth moonshine, and the result is something folks can't stop talking about." Flavor-wise, these citrusy mandarin orange segments are enhanced with Ole Smoky's White Lightnin' moonshine for a sweet and tangy experience with a signature kick.
The new Moonshine Mandarins join Ole Smoky's popular Fruit & Veggie Moonshine line, featuring other fan-favorite releases like Moonshine Pickles and Moonshine Peaches.
