Strawberry-Rhubarb Popcorn-ball – Cocktail Recipe

Instagram Links, Recipes

So the cocktail we had originally planned on for yesterday’s Summer Farm to Table Bourbon Dinner @ Addie’s was a Strawberry Rhubarb Smash (similar to a Julep) using Barrel House Distilling Company’s Devil John Dark ‘Shine.

But through ordering fault or happenstance, we accidentally ended up with Devil John Moonshine instead.

The drink turned out amazing with both light & refreshing fruit flavor and a soft buttered popcorn (think buttered popcorn jelly bean) note that made the drink far more rich and complex than your average moonshine drink.

In case you want the original recipe planned for the evening we also have the Strawberry-Rhubarb Smash recipe below.
