Pink cider is pink because of the addition of red fruit juice, such as strawberries or raspberries, during the fermentation of the cider. The added fruit juice gives the finished cider a pink colour.
Sweet cider : Sweet cider is sweet and low in alcohol, with an alcohol content of between 1.2% and 4.5%.

- Glass: Use a glass that is appropriate for the drink, such as a wine glass for drier, more robust ciders, or a beer glass for sweeter, fruitier ciders.
- Shaking: If the cider is served in a bottle, be sure to shake the bottle well before serving to stir up any particles that have settled to the bottom.
- Tasting: Take time to taste the cider, smell its aroma and describe its flavour.
