I don’t know about you, but it seems almost every summer evening, as the sun starts to set and give way to golden hour, the evening ushers in sweet treat o’clock. You grab your nearest friend and search for something sweet to settle down with; a much needed cool down from the heat of the day. All too often, I develop an itch for summer’s token treat: ice cream. Tall Pines Distillery brings you a fun way to enjoy your spirits, and scratch that craving for something sweet. Float away at Tall Pines Distillery this Saturday, July 23, and stop by for a boozy float, or pick up a bottle and choose from the recipes below to make one yourself. Dessert wine better step aside; it’s time for moonshine to truly shine.

More Boozy Beverage Inspiration:
Looking for other spirits to bring into the equation? If you’re a whiskey and coke drinker, combine your favorite whiskey along the Trail, Coke and a scoop of ice cream. Or, substitute for cherry Coke for a more sweet and fruity flavor.
For a more tropical vibe, pair Maggie’s Farm Rum White Rum or Pineapple Dark Rum with pineapple soda. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you’ll soon be floating off to paradise.
