Ice Cider Questions

What is ice cider?

Ice cider is a sweet apple-based drink made by concentrating apple juice before fermentation. Its flavor can bring ripe fruit notes and a dessert-like finish, making it enjoyable on its own or alongside food.

How should I serve ice cider?

Serve it chilled in a small wine glass or tasting glass. A modest pour gives the aromas room to open and makes it easy to enjoy slowly, either before dessert or alongside a meal.

What foods pair well with ice cider?

Try it with sharp cheeses, fruit desserts, roasted nuts, or savory dishes with a touch of sweetness. Pairings depend on the cider’s flavor, so start with foods you already enjoy and taste together.

Is ice cider the same as ice wine?

No. Ice cider is made from apples, while ice wine is made from grapes. Both are sweet, concentrated drinks, but their fruit base gives each a distinct flavor and pairing character.
