The Cornish Orchards Peach & Apple cider has been unveiled as the brand's latest libation that's crafted with summertime enjoyment in mind. The cider features 100% freshly pressed apple juice alongside natural peach flavor to give it a sweet, summery taste profile that pairs well with lighter summer dishes like salads. The cider comes in with a 3.4% ABV to accommodate leisurely sipping, is meant to be served over ice and responds to increasing demand for low-alcohol refreshments amongst consumers in the UK.
