This classic boozy drink sees a history that dates back thousands of years. Flipping through you can see that apples weren’t for eating as they were often bitter, but the juice was fermented till it had bubbles and hence the bubby apple cider was born. From plucking the apples to crushing  them into pulp and then straining to collect the raw juice, Cider making is a much simple process as it majorly depends on the fermentation that has been used. This alcoholic drink that is made by fermenting apple juice comes in many forms like still, naturally sparkling, bottle-fermented, carbonated, dry,  ice cider, cider brandy, acidic and more.
