That’s because drinking affects the hormones that control your appetite, 10 as well as making you less inhibited and therefore less likely to make healthy choices. 11 Although not widely made in modern times, various other pome fruits can produce palatable drinks. Apicius, in Book II of De re coquinaria, includes a recipe calling for quince cider.
An important component in cider-making is the addition of sulphur dioxide to inhibit the growth of many spoilage bacteria or yeasts in the juice. This encourages the inoculated yeast to dominate the juice environment, converting sugars to alcohol. [59] Once sulfur dioxide dissolves in the juice, it converts into a pH dependent mixture of bisulfite, sulfite ions, and molecular sulfur dioxide. The "unbound" sulfur dioxide provides the antimicrobial environment in the juice, while the bisulfite and sulfite ions contribute to flavour. The quantity of sulfur dioxide needed to inhibit microbial activity is directly related to the pH of the juice; lower pH means less should be added, while higher pH juice requires more. [60] Many cider producers add sulfur dioxide immediately after pressing and juicing, but before fermentation. However, in some cases it can be added afterwards to act as an antioxidant or stabiliser. This prevents the finished cider from releasing hydrogen peroxide or aldehydes that produce "off" odors and flavours. [61] Following the explosion of alcohol-free beers into the market it became inevitable the next innovation was likely to be a premium alcohol-free cider,” says Tom Ward, founder and chief executive of alcohol-free drinks retailer Wise Bartender.

Modern ciders are made from culinary apples and are lower in tannins and higher in acidity than other cider styles. [31] Common culinary apples used in modern ciders include McIntosh, Golden Delicious, Jonagold, Granny Smith, Gala, and Fuji. [31] A sweet or low alcohol cider may tend to have a strong aromatic and flavour character of apple, while drier and higher alcohol ciders will tend to produce a wider range of fruity aromas and flavours. [31] Modern ciders vary in color from pale to yellow and can range from brilliant to a hazy clarity. [31] Clarity can be altered through various cider making practices, depending on the cider maker's intentions. [31] Heritage ciders [ edit ]
Most New Zealand ciders are made from concentrate or from reject apples from the country's significant export apple industry. These ciders are made year round with little consideration given to maturation.The cognates in the different Romance languages: Spanish, Portuguese sidra, Italian sidro, etc., [24] in the Germanic languages: German Zider, [25] etc. are all from French [24] and Breton chistr, Welsh seidr (through an English form) probably too. Bringing together three new Thatchers infused premium fruit flavours in a world first for cider, this summer it’s all about the Thatchers 3 in 1 Fusion Font, the new way of serving fruit cider. It brings craft and world leading innovation together for a great tasting, premium infused cider, with the heritage and provenance of four generations of Somerset cider making from Thatchers. Saving space in the cellar and at the bar, the choice of three infused premium fruit flavoured ciders comes to the bar in one single font, with one keg and one line, meaning lower maintenance, less space and more choice. Bowers, Simon (2006-06-26). "Bulmers to take on Magners in a cider decider". The Guardian. London . Retrieved 2006-06-20. In 2014, a study found that a 1-US-pint (470ml) bottle of mass-market cider contained five teaspoons (20.5g) of sugar, nearly the amount the WHO recommends as an adult's daily allowance of added sugar, and 5–10 times the amount of sugar in lager or ale. [16] A popular drink in China is called " Apple cider vinegar" ( Chinese: 苹果醋; pinyin: Píngguǒ Cù). Shanxi Province is noted for the "vinegar" produced there.
Large quantities of Polish apple concentrate are exported to UK, Scandinavia, and Ireland for cider production. [ citation needed] Spain [ edit ] Asturian cider being poured ("escanciado") in the traditional manner Cook says cider has a completely unique flavour profile compared to beers and wines, and it offers a drinking opportunity for a variety of occasions. Yes, it can be the summer thirst-quencher but can also be that really refreshing drink, something to you have with a meal, something that you can ‘pop’ when celebrating, one to sit and savour, as examples.Cider has also been popular in the Basque Country for centuries. [103] Whilst Txakoli and Rioja wines became more popular in Biscay, Álava, and Navarre during the 19th century, there is still a strong Basque cider culture in Gipuzkoa. From the 1980s, government and gastronomic associations have worked to revive this culture in all Basque regions. Known as sagardoa (IPA: /s̺a'gardoa/), it is drunk either bottled or in a cider house (called a sagardotegi), where it is poured from barrels. Most of "sagardotegis" are in the north of Gipuzkoa (Astigarraga, Hernani, Urnieta, and Usurbil), but they can be found everywhere in Gipuzkoa, the northwest of Navarre and the northern Basque country. Choosing the right ciders will be key for many operators where cider sales increase over the summer, says Thatchers Cider on-trade sales director Rob Sandall, who adds operators need to have a range that will appeal to their core customers.

Ice cider (French: cidre de glace), originating in Quebec and inspired by ice wine, has become a Canadian speciality, now also being produced in England. For this product, the apples are frozen either before or after being harvested. Its alcohol concentration is 9–13% ABV. Cidre de glace is considered a local speciality in Quebec and can fetch high prices on the international market. In Canada, ice cider is produced by natural, outdoor freezing. In Europe and the United States, a similar product may be achieved through artificial, interior freezing, though often not under the name 'ice cider.' Cider is an alcoholic drink made by fermenting apples. It can be still or sparkling. Perry is a similar drink, made using the same method, but using pears instead of apples.
