Apple Cider (Fresh)

Fresh apple cider is a freshly pressed, unpasteurised or gently pasteurised apple juice that retains its natural cloudiness, full fruity aroma, and rich flavour. Unlike commercially produced juice, it is not filtered or clarified, meaning it retains more natural nutrients, fibre, and antioxidants. It is traditionally made in autumn from freshly harvested apples and is available at farmers markets, orchards, and organic stores. It is enjoyed as a healthy drink but also finds uses in the kitchen, as a base for sauces, soups, or in baking. Unpasteurised cider has a short shelf life and should be stored in the refrigerator.
