Cider jugs. Somerset, England. Cider (/ ˈ s aɪ d ər / SY-dər) is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermented juice of apples. [1] Cider is widely available in the United Kingdom (particularly in the West Country) and Ireland. The UK has the world's highest per capita consumption, as well as the largest cider-producing companies.
At the other end of the scale are the factories mass-producing brands such as Strongbow and Blackthorn. Mass-produced cider, such as that produced by Bulmers, is likely to be pasteurised and force-carbonated. The colour is likely to be golden yellow with a clear appearance from the filtration. White ciders are almost colourless in appearance.
In the United States, the definition of cider can be more broadly defined than in Europe, specifically Ireland and the UK. There are two types of cider: one being the traditional fermented product, called hard cider, and the second sweet or soft cider. Sparkling cider is also sometimes used as a nonalcoholic version of champagne. [1]
