According to my research, the bottle of White Dog Whiskey I just picked up is a sign of the new small distilleries coming to the whiskey scene. I have to make a stunning confession - I've never had moonshine. I know, shocking, right. Well, this is a 62.5% bomb that will burn your taste buds like a flask of 151º at Hallomass

I wrote down these recipes months and months ago when I first bought White Dog. I got drunk making this post and never finished it. I decided to post it despite not having a complete recipe to present. At some point I plan on finishing it and presenting a Redface Original. TBA.
Looking at these recipes now - what was I thinking with that third one? Lime juice and an egg white? How could that possibly do anything other than turn your stomach?
ReplyDeleteWhen I revisit this to make a final version, I'll make sure not to make it with citrus and eggs. Actually I'll go one step farther - I won't make it with any recipe that would curdle if not stirred immediately.
