On the back of the jar, there is a distressingly difficult to read explanation of the beverage that specifically refers to it as a cherry limeade moonshine.

The alcohol flavor is simultaneously more intense and less intense than it needs to be.

After almost a year from buying a place in the #BlueRidgeMountains, we finally had a #datenight. I promise you that there is nothing like living in a small town and supporting small business owners. ๐Ÿก

Living slow, dining local, and drinking something strong (yes, #moonshine) under #Appalachian skies. Around here, the sunsets stop traffic, everybody knows your name, and the stories get better after dark. Small town life may not move fast but it sure knows how to live. I am so fortunate. The sunsets are pretty fabulous too!

Also, how cool is it that I'm standing in the middle of the road to take this picture. ๐Ÿ˜

#Appalachia #Sunsets #SmallTown #Georgia

Springtime in the Appalachians, for me, means gravel roads, green hills, back porch talks with apple pie moonshine and taking in the light rain in the afternoon. My vintage West Virginia glass is the perfect vessel.

This isn't a gimic. This is heritage and culture.

The Moonshine Women by Michelle Collins Anderson

This story takes place in the Prohibition era Missouri Ozarks. Three sisters take over the family moonshine business as they work together to provide for the family. We are introduced to the hardships of living in the country and making a product that the police are out to destroy.

Lidy and her son Hiram live in a little shack on the farm with his three daughters.  

Lidy Strong is the grandmother who adds her own special recipe to their moonshine helping to make it a lucrative business.

Rebecca is the oldest and most physically fit for working the farm. Rebecca doesnโ€™t talk much. She seems to be happy hunting and being in nature.  

Elsie is smaller and pitches in with the regular housework. She is the most kindhearted of the three girls. She loves to sew, cook, clean, and sometimes hide from the more difficult farm tasks that are needed. Elsie is the romantic. She dreams of falling in love and that makes her more vulnerable and life more difficult for all of them.

Jace is the youngest girl who has a few secrets surrounding her place in the family. She is loud and more of a tomboy. She is the one who goes with her father into the woods to run the still and make the alcohol. Her nickname is Shine.

Lidy and the girls live in a dirt floor shack. They grow their own food, can it, make their own clothing, and donโ€™t ask for much.

This is a story of family struggles and how they stick together to make it all work.

The story is well written. I have been through the Ozarks, and I could picture the scenery and the people. There are moments that make you laugh and some that make you cry. I thought this was an enjoyable read. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to escape to a simpler time where most people didnโ€™t have telephones, let alone cell phones. Cars were a luxury and most food grew in your own garden.
