You know, that is a great question. I recently moved back home from a state where I lived for 23 years. The state I moved to used apple juice as apple cider.
Now I really, really love apple cider, and being gone for 23 years, I craved me some apple cider. That being said, I moved home in April and had to wait until Fall for the nectar of the Gods called apple cider.
Fall came around and the craving was in full force, so I talked my roommate into running me to the store to purchase my first jug of ambrosia. ( my mouth is watering I type).
When we get to the store, I don't want to spend an hour just to purchase apple cider. So I run in, (more like walk briskly), and find the apple cider, I grab the first half gallon I come to and high tail it to the register and make my purchase. I get back to the vehicle and we head home. We get into the house and the first thing I do is go to the cupboard, grab a glass and pour me a glass of deliciousness.
Now please remember, It's been 23 years since I've been able to enjoy my first taste of cider. I tip the glass back and take a huge gulp and man, this doesn't taste like I remembered...did I purchase a bad jug of cider? did my taste change? I look at the bottle and what do my wondering eyes see? friggin Pumpkin Spice. now I'm not a pumpkin spice fan to begin with, but, who in the name of God would put pumpkin spice in apple cider?? go ahead, go ahead, I'll wait...
So, the answer to your inquiry is Pumpkin Spiced Apple Cide.
