What does apple cider consist of?

Apple cider consists primarily of the fermented juice from crushed apples. The fermentation process converts the sugars in the apples into alcohol, resulting in a beverage with a distinct tart and slightly sweet flavor. It typically contains around 5-8% alcohol by volume (ABV) and is non-carbonated. Apple cider also contains various vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants derived from the apples used in its production.
