Cider is made from fermented apple juice, an alcoholic beverage. It is an ancient beverage that dates back to when Julius Caesar attempted to invade Britain in 55 BCE. He found the native Celts fermented crabapples during this period. Ciders have had a long history, passing from one era into another. Cider was first made from crab apples, ancestors of the bittersweet apples used by today's cider makers. In present times, the flavour of cider intensely varies. It can be characterized as either sweet or dry. A sweet or low alcohol cider may tend to have an apple's solid aromatic and flavour characteristics. At the same time, drier and higher alcohol ciders tend to produce a broader range of fruity aromas and flavours. Some ciders are cloudy and foamy in look, while others are crystal clear. They are generally colourless or brown in the shade when talking about their colour. Apple cider is used to make a wide array of cocktails.
