This may just be me being a pedantic little bitch, but I hate when people call it "apple cider" Cider is made from apples, the apple is redundant!

[-] Astongt615@lemmy.one 27 points 10 months ago

Cider can be made from all kinds of good fruits (maybe things other than fruits can count as cider, I'm cideroligist)

[-] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

I thought the technical term was 'In-cider.'

[-] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 3 points 10 months ago

I guess if a sciencethist says it, it must be true

[-] cynar@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Cider has to be made from apple juice. It can be flavoured with other fruits, but if it's labeled cider, it has to be apple based.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 10 months ago

The type of fruit that you use dictates what you've made. There's no such thing as grape cider.

So the pear cider I have been drinking was a lie?!

[-] Noodle07@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

It's still got apples in it it's still cider it's just also got pears in it.

Just like wild fruit cider isn't really made from berries. It's just got berries in

[-] Liquid_Fire@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Perry is made from pears, it's not just pear-flavoured apple cider.

[-] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Only if it comes from the cider district of France, else you have to call it cremant

This is right, I learned this last year and was blown away

[-] ElectroVagrant@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

by the Platypus? Yeah, they have a way of dropping knowledge like that.

[-] xeekei@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

A shame what happened to him, he was great in friends. But don't change the subject!

[-] Abird1620@sh.itjust.works 6 points 10 months ago

Meh, let the apple lovers lean into the fact they are getting the good shit.

[-] jeanofthedead@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

Okanagan brand “cider” is vodka, bubbly water, and fruit flavors.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 10 months ago

So vodka orange basically? That's mummy's special drink.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, well... I also have a PIN number.

[-] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

To use at the ATM machine?

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

I'll allow it as it implies they mean unfiltered, unfermented apple juice rather than "hard" cider.
