Honey-banana cider in a glass

Honey-Banana Cider

Cider is traditionally made from fermented apple juice, but in recent years, many non-alcoholic versions have also become popular. This honey-banana version adds a special twist to the classic recipe, as the natural sweetness and creamy texture of the banana perfectly complement the tart freshness of the apple. The spices – cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg – deepen and add complexity to the flavors, while the honey provides a pleasant, natural sweetness. Tip: if you want to intensify the flavors, try adding a little freshly grated ginger!
