New and Refreshing

Recently I was given the opportunity to try a new product and review it. The product is Michelob ULTRA Light Cider.

This past Memorial Day weekend, one of my sons and some friends came over for dinner on the grill and I thought it would be the perfect time to try out the Michelob ULTRA Light Cider.

As the weather heats up, it is always great to have a light, low calorie refreshing drink on hand for all of those backyard picnics and pool parties. Michelob ULTRA Light Cider has only 120 calories per serving, which is 1/3 fewer calories than an average of the leading hard ciders.

I found it crisp and refreshing! I had never had hard cider before and really enjoyed it. I think it makes a great alternative to white wine or champagne. It has a mellow sweetness and can be enjoyed straight or over ice. Perfect for a hot summer day.

We enjoyed Michelob ULTRA Light Cider with hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, macaroni salad and baked beans. It would be wonderful with BBQ pork. Apples and pork, how can you go wrong there?

It reminds me a little of Riesling wine so I would also pair it with spicy southwestern or Asian foods. Which favorite summer meal or activity do you think would go best with Michelob ULTRA Light Cider?

Michelob ULTRA Light Cider is made with all-natural ingredients, including crisp apples, is naturally sweetened with stevia and is gluten-free.
