What’s Sarah drinking? Cider, duh.

This bottle comes to us from the Tieton Cider Works. It’s a semi-sweet cherry cider. It has a surprising apple and cinnamon flavor that’s followed by tart cherry and ends with sort of dry finish, the cherry sticks around. I didn’t know cider is 7% alcohol by volume.

What’s Sarah drinking tonight?

Tieton Cider Works is squeezing apples over in the Yakima Valley, the homeland of my mothers people. The Blossom Nectar is the sweetest of their ciders, that’s why it comes with a pink cap. It’s like champagne but with more apple. Unlike Martenelli’s this has the sparkle of champagne and the alcohol.
