I made a cran-apple cider with no sugar for Turkey Day and it came outquite good. It fermented for approx. 3-days before we drank it. Thehydrometer read ~2.5% alcohol (the bubbles created during carbonationcould also screw up the density/alcohol percentage reading).Thanks for the advice!--- Steve wrote:> I would go for a straight hard cider or a cran-apple cider.Don't> add ANY sugar and expect alcohol in the 4-6% range.
