moonshine
Definition
- Hooch, shine, mountain dew, or white lightning—the names change but one thing has remained constant throughout American history: Moonshine is untaxed and therefore illegal liquor. The history of moonshine predates America and continues to be written. [Source: The Social History of Crime and Punishment in America: An Encylopedia; Moonshine]
