Square Mile Cider Co.'s Holiday Cranberry Hard Apple Cider comes in a rich red color, bringing a new twist to a classic fall beverage with a blend of sweet and tart fruit flavors.

Inspired by cutout paper cards that are handmade during the holiday season, especially around Christmas, this bottle design by the [Sasquatch Agency](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Lagersquatch) is designed to highlight the unique color of the drink. As a result, this year the [cider bottle design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heineken-ireland) took home a bronze Pentaward in the Beer, Cider, and Low-Alcohol Beverage Category.

Although cider drinks infused with other fruits like pear are not hard to come by in the grocery store, this cranberry blend is a new and exciting offering on the market and it would be a treat to try if you're a fan of [classic apple cider](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honeycrisp-apple-cider).
