Moonlight & Mooncakes: Celebrate the Equinox with Toasts & Treats

Sep 17, 2025Ashok Chawdhary

A Festive Night to Raise a Glass

The Mid-Autumn Festival Singapore 2025 is one of the most beautiful celebrations of the year. Families gather, lanterns glow, and mooncakes take center stage. But here’s a way to make the night even more special: pairing your favourite mooncakes with the perfect drink.

At Tipsy Topsy, we’ve created a friendly guide to mooncake and wine pairing, whisky, liqueurs, and beer so your Mid-Autumn feast shines brighter than the full moon.

Wine & Mooncake Pairing

Wine and mooncakes are a natural duo - sweet meets smooth.

  • For traditional lotus paste mooncakes, pair with a Sauvignon Blanc like Zantho Sauvignon Blanc 750ml.

  • For chocolate mooncakes, a bold red from our Wine Collection brings out richness.

  • Sparkling wines make festive all-rounders, perfect for group celebrations.

Whisky & Liqueurs with Mooncakes

Whisky and cream or fruit liqueurs can elevate the Mid-Autumn experience:

  • Try The Shinobu 10 YO Pure Malt Mizunara Whisky with nutty or sesame mooncakes for a bold contrast.

  • Cream liqueurs like Baileys (available in our Liqueurs Collection) pair wonderfully with snow skin or coffee mooncakes.

  • Fruit-forward liqueurs such as Bols or Midori add a playful twist with fruity snow skin mooncakes.


Beer & Mooncakes: An Unexpected Match

Beer might surprise you as a pairing choice — but it works!

  • Light lagers from our Chilled Beer Collection cut through the richness of dense mooncakes.

  • Darker beers (like stouts) complement chocolate or coffee mooncakes beautifully.
