This may just be me being a pedantic little bitch, but I hate when people call it "apple cider" Cider is made from apples, the apple is redundant!
Cider can be made from all kinds of good fruits (maybe things other than fruits can count as cider, I'm cideroligist)
I thought the technical term was 'In-cider.'
Cider has to be made from apple juice. It can be flavoured with other fruits, but if it's labeled cider, it has to be apple based.
I guess if a sciencethist says it, it must be true
The type of fruit that you use dictates what you've made. There's no such thing as grape cider.
So the pear cider I have been drinking was a lie?!
It's only called "poiré" if its made from the poiré région in France duuh
A pear cider is called a "perry"
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perry
It's still got apples in it it's still cider it's just also got pears in it.
Just like wild fruit cider isn't really made from berries. It's just got berries in
Perry is made from pears, it's not just pear-flavoured apple cider.
Only if it comes from the cider district of France, else you have to call it cremant
Then wtf is pear cider?
Perry
This is right, I learned this last year and was blown away
by the Platypus? Yeah, they have a way of dropping knowledge like that.
A shame what happened to him, he was great in friends. But don't change the subject!
Meh, let the apple lovers lean into the fact they are getting the good shit.
Okanagan brand “cider” is vodka, bubbly water, and fruit flavors.
So vodka orange basically? That's mummy's special drink.
Yeah, well... I also have a PIN number.
To use at the ATM machine?
I'll allow it as it implies they mean unfiltered, unfermented apple juice rather than "hard" cider.
