What is "scrumpy"?
Scrumpy is a type of cider made from apples that are left to ferment for an extended period of time. It is a strong, dry cider with a high alcohol content, usually ranging from 6-8%. It is traditionally made with bittersweet or bitter apples, and is usually unfiltered and unpasteurized. Scrumpy is often cloudy and has a tart, fruity flavor. It is popular in the United Kingdom, particularly in the West Country, and is often served chilled or over ice. It is also used to make a variety of cocktails, such as the Snakebite, which combines equal parts of lager and scrumpy.
