Don’t forget cider is one of the most food-friendly beverages out there — add your favorite cheese plate for the perfect pairing.

Adding peaches to any of our ciders works great! Peaches and apples are both late summer tree fruits that often share many of the same flavors. Add them to these recipes for an additional boost of fruity deliciousness.

A mouth-watering nod to sweet blackberries, this pairing will not disappoint. Luscious, ripe blackberries compliment the refreshing tart, crisp cider and add depth to the classic grilled cheese. Bonus - the blackberries make the combo appear more impressive and difficult to whip up than it actually is, which makes it perfect when entertaining guests.
