When choosing an apple cider to use you can go a number of different ways. One thing we like to keep in mind is our sugar-free options and the spice level. Normally, we elect for a spiced apple cider from the store that has little to no added sugar in it. Here is one we like for example. You can always use the traditional alpine spiced apple cider packets which works just fine, but does add an additional step to your process.
