Having grown up in apple country, I am a BIG cider fan and am ALWAYS looking for that perfect pint.
Recently, I found an AMAZING set of ciders that combines the cider-making heritage of Bristol, England, with the “keep it weird” ethos of Austin, TX, to make some of the most original and delicious ciders I have ever tasted!
Austin Eastciders takes the noble apple and does some stuff with it that might make traditionalists wince but that will surely make everyone smile! While their original dry and seasonal spiced ciders are worthy additions to the apple armada, it is their watermelon, pineapple, grapefruit, blackberry, and other forwardly-fruited flavors that have me whoopin’ it up like a rodeo clown on a bender.
In addition to their always-available and rarer “Maker’s Stash” ciders, Austin makes spiked seltzers that are also made with real fruit. The options are so varied, in fact, that I am yet to try them all, but I sure as heck look forward to!
While each can is great on its own, the Austin Eastciders website (https://austineastciders.com) has great recipe suggestions to make their wide range of flavors go even further along your route to refreshment.
Don’t get me wrong- Apples are wonderful! As with so many things, however, it’s what you do with them that counts!
Thanks to Austin Eastciders for doing all they do!
