Try orange and kiwi, but for the real Virginia Volcano garnish try it with a bit of salted jalapeño slice.

This really says nothing is too good for my friends and what can be less pretentious than a drink of bubbly mixed with two SweetShines? That there is Hillbilly Chic, cuz

The cream and lemon smooth out the higher alcohol content of this Italian liqueur that’s been crowned the “Moonshine Milkshake.” Keep an eye out for the limoncello collar that develops. Don’t be afraid, it’s truly not curdled milk. The cream rises to the top and forms a “plug” that tastes like lemon cheesecake!
