Etymology
The word 'cider' originated from the Latin word 'cฤซderis' which means 'fermented apple juice'. It made its way into Old French as 'cidre' before arriving in Middle English as 'cider'. The production and consumption of cider date back centuries, having roots in ancient civilizations that cultivated apples. Initially, cider was a popular drink among the working class due to its refreshing qualities and lower alcohol content compared to other spirits. Over time, the craft of cider-making evolved, and it became associated with specific regions known for their apple orchards, leading to various styles and flavors that we enjoy today. The history of cider is intertwined with agricultural practices and the cultural significance of apples in various societies across the world.
