The Shacksbury Spritz Ginger Cider comes as a refreshingly crisp alternative to traditional beer, ciders and cocktails that is light, artisanal and naturally gluten-free. The cider is crafted from 100% fresh apples that are sourced in Vermont, while the recipe keeps the sugar content as low as possible with each can containing just three grams.

The cider is reportedly inspired by [low alcohol cocktails and session beers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/somersby-zero) to make it suitable for those who are accustomed to the different varieties when it comes to enjoying a libation. The cider contains an 3.8% ABV.

The Shacksbury Spritz Ginger Cider comes as the perfect response to the growing number of consumers looking to try out different drinks other than the traditional beers and cocktails they're used to.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Low Alcohol Beverages:** The trend of low alcohol cocktails and session beers presents an opportunity to create refreshing and light alternatives to traditional beverages.
- **Gluten-free Beverages:** The demand for gluten-free options opens up a market for artisanal ciders made from fresh apples that cater to consumers with dietary restrictions.
- **Flavored Ciders:** Creating innovative flavored ciders, such as ginger-infused ones, taps into the trend of consumers seeking unique and refreshing beverage experiences.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Craft Beverage Industry:** Craft breweries and cideries can explore the creation of ginger-infused ciders to cater to consumers looking for artisanal and innovative beverage options.
- **Gluten-free Food and Beverage Industry:** Producers in the gluten-free market can leverage the popularity of ginger-infused ciders as a unique and naturally gluten-free beverage option.
- **Beverage Packaging Industry:** The rise of ginger-infused ciders creates an opportunity for beverage packaging companies to design packaging that reflects the artisanal and refreshing nature of the product.
