If you’ve heard Lainey Wilson sing her hit song Watermelon Moonshine—and who hasn’t—you know this country superstar is a big fan of summertime vibes. Stanley is a big fan of Lainey, and we’re not alone—in fact, Watermelon Moonshine is quickly becoming the sing-along anthem of the summer. Stanley is excited to be teaming up with Lainey on an exclusive limited edition Quencher - it’s a match made in summertime bliss.

Inspired by Lainey’s song, the Watermelon Moonshine Quencher comes in a juicy pink watermelon hue with fresh green details just right for channeling those warm summer vibes. It’s perfect for staying hydrated and sharing a cool drink with someone you love—whether it’s on the gate of a pickup truck or on your own front porch.

Collaborating with Stanley isn’t all Lainey is up to! She is fresh off of her own sold out headlining tour and already back out on the road with Luke Combs. She took some time out of her busy schedule to chat with us about Watermelon Moonshine, partnering with Stanley and of course, her favorite recipe for that delicious summertime drink.

The things that inspire me to write music go hand in hand with where my ideas come from. Experiences, living life, being a sister, friend, girlfriend, daughter and aunt. I love listening to folks’ stories and putting them into a song. I love making people feel something. Storytelling is part of my DNA.

February 14, 2020 was a day I’ll never forget. I got to play the Grand Ole Opry. It’s a place and stage that I consider sacred. I knew at nine years old when I went to the Opry for the first time, that one day I would be standing in that wooden circle…it was a full circle moment for me and for my family.

I love interacting during my live shows. I love reading the signs in the crowd and pulling fans up on stage when I get the chance. It’s an energy exchange. We give each other the energy to keep on going. I keep showing up for them, they keep showing up for me. We’ve got a good thing going.

It’s about that young, wild, crazy love that many of us have felt at some point in time. It takes you back to a time and place where nothing else mattered. Every now and then, it’s fun to revisit that place in your mind. That’s where our heads were at when we were writing this one.

I feel like it’s becoming a summer anthem. More and more folks are singing along - and I mean every word. Sonically, it’s pretty dreamy and the way it makes you feel is really just, well…free. I can see fans getting lost in the moment when they’re singing along, and I love to get lost with them.

It’s my uncle’s recipe that’s whipped up way back in the woods…. a family secret. But here’s a recipe that’s almost as good as my uncle’s:

Instructions

• Combine watermelon chunks and Everclear in a glass jar with a lid.
• In a small pot, combine lime juice, sugar and water. Over medium heat, stir until sugar is fully dissolved (no need to bring to a boil). Remove from heat and let it cool down.
• Pour simple syrup into the jar.
• Allow it to sit in the refrigerator for a night or two.
• Pour the contents of the jar into a bowl and mash the watermelon with a potato masher, then strain mixture back into the jar.
• Add ½ cup of the Watermelon Pucker. Shake, taste to see if the flavor is to your liking. If it’s not sweet enough or you need a little more watermelon flavor, add in additional Watermelon Pucker.
• Store in your freezer until you’re ready for more.

Note: Always leave room in the jars. The mixture should not truly freeze up, however, err on the side of caution. Freeze overnight (or longer).

Lots of water, whiskey on a show day, a beer by the fire, some wine with a good meal and some tequila on a girls’ night out.

It’s the cup you see everybody carrying around. It’s the cup that keeps the cold dranks cold and the hot dranks hot. But most importantly, it’s what my papaw drank out of everyday of his life.

Thank you, Lainey, for sharing your story with us!
