Our Three Types of Cider

Los Rios Signature

The perfect all-around cider. A blend of 5 Los Rios apples produce a sweet/tart flavors in this zippy unfiltered cider. Perfect for pairing with an appetizer, or just drinking by itself.

Apple Berry Cider 

A blend of tart and sweet apple varieties steeped with a puree of raspberries and blackberries. Slightly sweet, unpretentious, and refreshing. Good as an afternoon libation or with light food.

California Sunshine

Dry. This is our Cider at full strength with no back sweetening to change the fresh crisp apples that we use to make the Rootstock.

Blended Ciders

Bracebridge Cider

 A glorious winter cider.  We took our Apple-Pear Hard Cider blend, and added in some cranberry, orange and spices. With notes of cinnamon and clove, this cider is perfect warm or cold.

Single Varietal

*Seasonally Available.

The Merry Pippin

Made with Los Rios Pippin crop, this cider strikes just the right element of sweet and refreshing. Excellent paired with Thai or Indian Food. But just as yummy all by itself.

Gravenstein

Made from our excellent heritage cider apple, the first to ripen each season. This varietal is crisp and light with a tart, clean finish. Pairs nicely with Indian and Thai dishes.

Arkansas Black

This late harvest apple lends itself to a cider like no other. Layers of tart apple flavor combine with a delicate sweetness and a finish that lingers on the tongue. Pairs well with pork dishes and works well as a liquid base for any sauce or fondue.

Winesap

A bright, sweet-tart cider. Easy on the palate with fruity tones and goes as well with appetizers as with dessert.

Apple Shandy 

Inspired by the British Shandy, ours is a more potent mixture of hard cider and lemonade. Sweet and sour, sparkling, and refreshing. Good as an afternoon libation or with light food.

Strawberry Sparkler

We took the sweetness of the juice from our strawberries grown right here on the farm and added it to our hard cider blend.  Sweet and refreshing, this cider is perfect for warm, sunny days and a picnic.

Apple Raspberry

The mild tartness from the raspberries grown in the orchard here at Los Rios is a prominent flavor in this hard cider blend.   Tastes like fresh raspberry cider should!  Pairs well with hard cheeses or a berry summer salad.
