Apple cider is the name used in the United States and parts of Canada for an unfiltered, unsweetened, non-alcoholic drink made from apples. Modern methods allow a formerly hand-made beverage to be commercially produced. To make cider, apples are washed, cut and ground into a mash that is the consistency of applesauce. Layers of mash are wrapped in cloth, and put between wooden racks. A hydraulic press squeezes the layers, and the juice flows into refrigerated tanks. This juice is bottled as apple cider.
