As cider continues to make leaps and bounds in popularity among Kiwi drinkers, here are a few new tipples on the market.

MONTEITH'S LIGHTYLY CRUSHED CIDER

Monteith’s Crushed Apple has cemented its place as New Zealand’s number one selling cider*. This year the Monteith’s cider team have come up with a tasty new offering for those looking to make the most of their summers. Monteith’s Lightly Crushed Cider is the first lower alcohol cider to hit New Zealand shelves, with only 2.8% alcohol. This perfect new tipple for summer, fermented with 100% handpicked, crushed New Zealand apples, has all the same full flavour of Crushed Apple Cider, making it perfect for social occasions where you wish to keep your wits about you.

OLD MOUT CIDER

Old Mout Cider has been lovingly made in its Nelson cidery since 1947, and since way back then, it’s been all about helping Kiwis celebrate the good times.  And now those clever cidermakers have been working on ways to make their cider more enjoyable for plenty more occasions this summer. For times that call for something a tad more dressed up, they’ve added a 500ml glass bottle to the Old Mout family – and it’s available in two delicious flavours, the much-loved, velvety Boysencider and the luscious Passionfruit & Cider. All you need to do is chill, add ice (if you fancy) and enjoy responsibly.

REKORDERLIG CIDER

The delicious march of new Rekorderlig flavours is not letting up with the arrival of Rekorderlig Premium Lemon-Lime (4% ABV) just in time for summer. The perfectly balanced citrus symphony of sweet juicy lemons and zesty limes in this tasty number are best enjoyed over ice with a wedge of lime or a splash of bitters for extra tang.
