Ciders

Ciders are made from fermented apple juice. It's been around since about 55 B.C., when Romans conquered continental Europe and planted orchards in place of native crab apples for the production of hard cider. It also has history in northern France, where apples fared better during the Dark Ages (400 A.D.) and cider became an alternative to wine. Because cider is fruit-based and is not a beer, it is gluten-free!
