One of the newest additions to Portland Cider's collection of Year Round Ciders is 'Sangria Cider,' which boasts a rich fruity flavor from orange, strawberry, pear, passion fruit, elderberry and lime.
The unique new beverage hybrid is made with a base of the brand's Sorta Sweet Cider, which is also one of the Year Round Ciders, as well as a blend of seven different fruits and 100% Northwest apples. As such, the Sangria Cider is being branded as a flavorful "fruit punch for grown-ups." As an alcoholic beverage that boasts a semi-sweet finish, Portland Cider specifically recommends serving it with roasted chicken, pastries and quiche.
Portland Cider's collection of Year Round Ciders also includes other inventive flavors like 'Passion Fruit,' as well as ones with humorous names like 'Kinda Dry' and 'Pearfect.'
