What is Sparkling Apple Juice?
- Sparkling apple juice and cider are fizzy, fun-filled versions of noncarbonated apple juice and its cider cousin. You ́ll find these naturally sweet, nonalcoholic drinks in your grocery store's juice aisle. Other fruit flavors are sometimes added to the apple, including cranberry, grape, pear, and pomegranate.

It was a cider attack!
