CIDER FAQs:

WHAT IS CIDER?

Cider is a drink made by fermenting fruit juice. It’s often made with a base of pressed apple juice and has a fruity and refreshing taste.
Fun fact: ‘Cider’ in the UK is usually alcoholic, but Americans would call this ‘hard cider’.

WHAT MAKES CIDER DIFFERENT FROM BEER?

Cider and beer are both alcoholic drinks, but they’re made from different ingredients. Beer comes from barley, while cider is made from fruit juice. This gives cider a distinctly crisp and sweet taste.

IS CIDER MADE ONLY FROM APPLES?

No! While cider is traditionally made with apples, it can also be made using other fruits like pears or berries. For instance, our Hedgerow Cideris made with plums, sloes and blackcurrants for a sharp twist on a classic apple cider.

HOW DO YOU MAKE CIDER?

We make cider by crushing and pressing fruit and then fermenting the juice with yeast, which turns the sugars into alcohol.
