Grape-Apple Ciders

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Appinette is Made by Fermenting Farm Apples and Hybrid Wine Grapes

— November 20, 2023 — Lifestyle
Aaron Burr Cidery makes Appinette by fermenting farmed apples and a hybrid wine grape (traminette) together to create a complex, crisp beverage that's uniquely its own. The unpasteurized, unfiltered grape-apple cider boasts 8.3% ABV and Appinette is said to be best served cold so that the smooth texture and intricate flavors that define this alcoholic beverage can be appreciated to the fullest.

An increasing number of producers are challenging the way wine and cider are typically made by mixing grape wines with ciders or fermenting different fruits alongside grapes. These hybrid drinks push the boundaries of fruit fermentation and redefine traditional methods, resulting in an array of experimental and intriguing flavors to offer something fresh and flavorful for modern palates.

3. Fresh and Flavorful Offerings - The hybrid grape-apple drinks offer something new and exciting for modern palates, with a range of complex and enticing flavors to explore.
