We all love to go crazy for pumpkin spice flavored EVERYTHING when the harvest/fall season is approaching. However, it seems to have over shadowed the great products we can make from apples!

As New Yorkers, many of us have memories of going to orchards to pick apples as kids and enjoying hot apple cider with cider donuts. As adults, we still love these fall traditions, and now we have even more ways to enjoy New York's most popular local ingredient.

Here are our favorite ciders to get you in apple pickin' mode!
