Canadian Sparkling Ciders
Canada's apple growing regions stretch literally from sea to shining sea, from the Atlantic Coast to the Pacific. Like the history of their southern cousins, apples have made a similar march across the Canadian provinces. In the early 1600s, settlers began propagating apples as they established self-sufficiency in their new world. The crop moved westward through New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, and eventually into British Columbia by the 1800s.
Saskatoon Berries, native to the prairies and a staple of the native people and early settlers, are now grown in commercial orchards. Riverbend Plantation has created a refreshing, non-alcoholic, carbonated Granny Smith and McIntosh apple cider blend that is rose in color from saskatoon berries. This product is all-natural juices containing no added sugar or preservatives. Presented in a champagne bottle and labeled with a scene from the orchard.
