Sparkling Orange & Blackberry Cider

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Drinks
Berries and citrus are a classic pairing. The earthy, deep flavor of blackberries complements the lightness of apple cider, while the acidity of the orange lifts the flavors. It's visually stunning too: anthocyanins from the blackberries turn the drink a beautiful crimson.

Place blackberries in a glass and muddle gently.

Tip: No need to purée, just crush the berries slightly to release juices.
3 ✓

Add the ice and orange zest.

Tip: The ice helps lock in the aromas.
4 ✓

Pour in the honey-sweetened orange juice and the apple cider.

Tip: Stir before serving to blend the denser orange juice with the cider.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use frozen blackberries?
Yes! Freezing breaks down the cell walls of the fruit, so they release much more juice and color into the drink when thawed.
