Maybe it was the brand but it's not my cup of tea...... or cider. When we were kids we would make hard cider. In the fall we would take apples and cut them up and store them in a jar till they start to bubbled.We then put them outside in a jug when the temp was below 32º. Everything would freeze accept the alcohol.. Sometimes the glass jug would crack..... no fun....
