Tastes

Neither a true cider nor a real whiskey, this saccharine concoction is the Hallmark Christmas Movie of wintry adult beverages— a low-budget imitation that tries to pour on sickening sweetness to make up for its abysmal quality. Notes of Robitussin and corn syrup give way to a potpourri of artificial fall flavorings on the finish that make you long for a tall glass of water to wash away the regret. The frustratingly low proof further removes any reason for this to exist. Save your money and buy a couple of 6-packs of actual hard cider.
