Cranberry Pomegranate Cider





















I made my first cider this weekend using Northland Cranberry-Pomegranate juice and Mott's Apple Juice.  I made a really simple recipe using 3 quarts apple juice with 1 cup of the cranberry-pomegranate juice (which also include apple and grape juices) and 1 cup of cranberry-pomegranate syrup I made by boiling 1 quart of the juice down.  I originally added some left over Irish Ale yeast but after 2 days with no activity and the gravity still at 1.060 I decided to add some wit yeast and it finally took.  I'm looking forward to seeing how this one finishes and hope to have updates in just a few weeks.
