Dreamsicle Moonshine
INGREDIENTS
• 1 1/2 gallon orange juice
• 2 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 cup powdered French Vanilla coffee creamer (Powdered allows the flavor to penetrate without diluting the drink. It’s worth it to splurge on the nice stuff)
• 1 tbs vanilla extract
• 1 cup vanilla vodka
• 4 cups Bandits Traditional Moonshine
INSTRUCTIONS
Bring orange juice and sugar to a boil. Stir in creamer until dissolved. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
Add vanilla extract, vodka, and moonshine. Stir, then jar and refrigerate. Let it sit for at least 2 weeks, shaking it every day or so. As with many things, the longer it sits, the better it gets.
NOTES
If you’ve got an extra vanilla bean laying around, add the seeds to the boiling orange juice for a deeper vanilla flavor.

Creamy Maple Buzz
- Fill a tall glass with ice
- Add 1 oz. of Bandits Maple Moonshine
- Fill glass with half Cold Coffee
- Fill remainder of glass with Cream
Traditional Moonshine can be consumed straight, but if you are looking for mix options, you can try these.
COLA
Don’t want to start a cola war here … Coke or Pepsi. But both are acceptable. Even the knock-off brands.
ICED TEA
Premade, bottled ice tea works best. Mixing it at a 3:1 ratio (3 parts ice tea to 1 part Traditional Moonshine) provides the perfect combination.
LEMONADE
Grab yourself a mason jar and fill it with ice. Moonshine and tart lemonade are what summers are meant for … and winter and spring and of course fall.
GINGER ALE
Looking to knock the edge of the Traditional Moonshine? Then Ginger Ale is your answer. The sweeter ginger ale helps the moonshine go down the smoothest.
GRAPEFRUIT JUICE
Some may think that grapefruit juice on its own is hard enough to drink. Combine that with our Traditional Moonshine and you will be surprised with the bright, citrusy combination.
SWEET VERMOUTH
Turn Traditional Moonshine into a strong, stirred drink by adding sweet vermouth. Similar to a Manhattan (2;1 ratio), try a 50/50 mix of Traditional Moonshine & Sweet Vermouth (not dry vermouth) with plenty of ice to soften all the flavours.
