Alpine Sugar-Free Spiced Cider
This review was done by Lizabeth Burnett. Liz has a passion for cooking healthy foods which started out of a desire to lose weight. "Not wanting to turn to a cabbage soup and bean sprout diet, I started shopping and cooking more mindfully which helped me lose 50 pounds over the last three years. Aside from cooking, I'm currently studying to become a dental assistant and I work at the local library."
The first thing I noticed is that the directions say to brew a pouch with "6-8" ounces of water. Deciding that the stronger version would be better, I brewed it with 6 ounces which was a big mistake. It was far too overwhelming, but adding a little more water remedied this. The taste is just like a candy apple; very sweet, a bit tart, and with a powerful apple flavor. Alas, like I said, it tastes like a candy apple, which, while good, is far from spiced apple cider. There really isn't any hint of spices such as cinnamon or cloves; just ... sweetened apple. A box of Alpine Sugar-Free Spiced Cider costs $1.70 for a box of ten pouches, which is roughly double the cost of their regular flavor. It contains 15 calories, 0 grams fat, 4 grams carbohydrates, 0 grams protein, 0 grams sugar, and 0 grams fiber per serving; essentially, it has nothing of value in it. Comments
