- Incorporated into baking recipes
- A festive non-alcoholic option
To best enjoy Martinelli's Gold Medal Sparkling Cider, serve it chilled. It is excellent on its own as a palate cleanser or a celebratory drink. For mixed drinks, its apple flavor complements spirits like rum, vodka, or brandy. It can also be used in baking, such as in glazes for pork or chicken, or as a liquid component in cakes and muffins to add moisture and a subtle apple note. The carbonation adds a lively texture to both drinks and dishes.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fermented apple ciders which contain alcohol, this sparkling cider is non-alcoholic. It also differs from unfiltered apple cider by being clarified and carbonated, resulting in a smoother texture and a brighter, effervescent quality. The focus is on the pure, sweet taste of apples without the tartness sometimes found in other apple beverages.
Who it is for
This beverage is enjoyed by individuals and families looking for a festive and accessible drink option.
How to keep the rest
After opening, refrigerate any remaining sparkling cider and consume within a few days. Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed to maintain its carbonation and freshness. Unopened bottles can be stored in a cool, dark place.
