With summer coming around, that means one thing; fall's next. With fall, we tend to associate it with apples, and do you know what apples make? Cider. While cider is completely underrated since most people still have their heads tied up with rosé szn, here's how that'll change thanks to Cider in Love.

What is Cider in Love?

Liz Abere

Cider in Love is a new online service that helps you find the perfect heritage cider to fit your cider consuming needs. On the website, not only are you able to shop all of their ciders from their different cideries, but you're able to refine your search and gear it towards your personal preferences; i.e., if you're looking for something on the sweeter or drier side of things, you're able to select your ideal cider to be either dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, or full on sweet. However, in order to place an order, you'll need to be 21 or older.

What are these steps that you speak of?

While the steps to finding your perfect Cider in Love match are short and sweet, it's of best interest to have me guide you through what to do. Let's go.

Step one: First, you'll need to head on over to the Cider in Love website, aka ciderinlove.com

While this step might seem blatantly obvious, it's by far the most crucial step to be following. 

Step two: Once this has been completed, click on the top left corner where it says 'shop.' It'll bring you to the 'shop' page.

Regardless of if you're dead set on buying some new cider or are in the midst of thinking about which cider is up next on your cider bucket list, Cider in Love's 'shop' page is where you'll go shopping and explore all of their ciders. This is also where you can easily filter out some ciders by clicking on citrus, dry, or sparkling options.

Step three: If filtering out the cider options by citrus, dry, or sparkling isn't cutting it for you, you can further filter out your citrus options by clicking on where it says 'filters.'

This is where you can filter out ciders by their flavor notes, how dry or sweet you'd like your cider match to be, how still or sparkling (more commonly referred to as the 'effervescence') the cider should be, if you'd like for the cider to be limited edition or not, or if you'd like ice cider or for your cider to be deemed as 'Pommeau' or not.

Step four: After you've filtered the ciders out to match your needs, scroll through your matches. For reference, here's what my eleven matches ended up being.

Given that Cider in Love currently has 45 different ciders to select from, a solid 11 matches is quite amazing.

Step five: Once you've selected which cider or ciders have you fallen in love with them, add them to your cart.

While adding your cider bottles to your cart, please keep in mind that some cideries require that you add a minimum of two bottles to your order for it to properly ship. While they don't necessarily have to be the same bottle, it can't hurt to try out something new.

Step six: Once you've entered your zip code, the page will redirect you to checkout with your bottles.

This is where you'll enter your shipping address, select your shipping method, pay for your order, and receive confirmation that your order has been placed. While entering your shipping address, use code 'FIRSTTIMEINLOVE' for 10% off your order. As I've mentioned earlier in the article, you'll need to be 21 or older in order to order and consume the ciders because they do contain alcohol.

Step 7: Receive your bottles and enjoy.

There's nothing as beautiful as when you take that first sip of cider because you're in love now; duh. It's a great feeling to be in love, and it's even better to be in love with an actual thing (in this case, cider) because it won't smart mouth you.

Now that you have your cider, I hope you're as in love with Cider in Love as I am. While receiving packages regularly might be nice, the best packages are those that consist of cider from Cider in Love.
