Do apple cider have the same ingredient as vinegar?

Apple cider and vinegar are both made from apples, but they are not the same thing. Here's why:

* Apple cider is made from pressed apples and is basically unfermented apple juice. It's sweet and can be used in drinks or cooking.

* Apple cider vinegar is made by fermenting apple cider. The fermentation process uses bacteria to convert the sugar in the cider into acetic acid, which gives vinegar its sour taste and sharp aroma.

Therefore, while they share a common origin, their ingredient composition and properties are different:

* Apple cider: Primarily contains sugars (fructose, glucose), water, and some vitamins and minerals.

* Apple cider vinegar: Primarily contains acetic acid, water, and small amounts of other compounds like malic acid and potassium.

In short: Apple cider vinegar is the fermented product of apple cider, and it has different ingredients and a much different taste than the unfermented cider.
