A Cider Brunch with Crispin

Cider gets a bad wrap in general for being too sweet. Well, IT’S NOT ALWAYS sweet (I’ve been down that road before). But even still, Crispin Cider in particular was one of those that I “wrote off” because of the one time I picked it up at Safeway and was like HOLY sh*t that’s apple juice! 😳 Guilty! I mean, can you blame me? But they’ve released some new bottles onto market that have me actually changing my opinion of the brand! 🍻🍎👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Ironically, my favorite flavors are not pictured in this post. 😬 But their Browns Lane cider is my new discovery because it’s the most light, dry and less sweet of the bunch. My girlfriend, Katie, likes their Honey Crisp flavor because its unfiltered and 6.9% – I have to agree that one’s pretty goooooood too. 👍🏼😄

Especially because I don’t like mimosas (😮😲). I know what you’re thinking…”waittttt, there is an alcoholic drink she doesn’t like?!? It can’t be!” Well yes, I’m not the biggest mimosa drinker so having an alternative “brunch appropriate” beverage (aka low ABV) is a huge win! 💯

Now, I’ll be turning to ciders more for my special mornings at home 😋🍳🥞 ( ⚠️ it’s hard to find a dry one when out at a restaurant) Happy Sippin’ Sunday and enjoy!

PS this Williams Sonoma pancake mix is divinnneeee. The flavor of the batter is different for some reason, and different is good. Like a hint of vanilla, or whatever the hell that gourmet quality is that I’m tasting is 👌🏼🥞👌🏼✨
