Cider, or fermented apple juice, has been gaining popularity lately. I’d say people are becoming more and more interested in their health and what they’re putting into their bodies. Cider is a great option if you just want to enjoy a drink or celebrate, but don’t want to spend the next day dealing with a headache and a hangover. Why?
1) natural ingredients
We make Cousins Cider from fresh Czech apples and it contains no added preservatives; it’s unfiltered, unpasteurized, and not artificially carbonated or sulfured. That’s why it retains all its nutrients and is an excellent alternative to many industrially processed drinks.
2) antioxidants
Apples are rich in antioxidants, which protect the body from free radicals. Antioxidants are key to protecting the health of cells in the body and can help prevent disease or slow down aging (and who wouldn’t want that?).
3) probiotics
The fermentation process is key in cider production. Apple juice ferments without access to air, creating apple cider. This is why it contains a wide range of probiotics that are beneficial for our gut flora. Apple juice contains sugar, which turns into alcohol. If fermentation isn’t stopped, the cider turns into vinegar, and you get apple cider vinegar packed with probiotics.
4) suitable for many occasions
Cider is perfect for a wide range of events, from family gatherings to romantic evenings. Thanks to its refreshing taste, it’s a great companion by the pool on hot days; in winter, on the other hand, you can mull it with spices and sip it in the warmth of your home.
