As a boy I remember those odd red fruits from the grocery store during the fall and early winter. I would dig out the little "seeds" with their sharp, a-little-sweet, a-little-sour taste -- and delightful finger-staining qualities. Even though pomegranates are one of today's nutritional heroes, every sip of Crystal Canyon's Sparkling Apple-Pomegranate Cider reminds me of another hero, my mom. So this chilled glass is raised in your honor, Mom! Thanks for introducing me to pomegranates, giving me a thirst for travel, and training my taste buds for life's best treats.

In 1961, when Russel W. Knudsen began bottling fruit juices from his organic grape vineyard, he did so on one condition: his fresh pressed and blended juices would never have artificial flavors, preservatives or sugar added to them. Little did he know that he was starting a tradition of innovation in health-conscious products. Today the innovation continues with Knudsen's Organic Apple Juice, bottled in a celebratory champagne-style bottle.

Maurice Henry (M.H.) Zeigler, father of 6 children, needed additional income during the Depression's difficult times. In 1932 he decided to build a cider press in the garage of his row home on Chestnut St. in Lansdale, PA. On Saturdays he and the children would deliver cider door-to-door. Two generations later Zeigler's still ciders are marketed in multiple states. SweetwaterOrchards is proud to be the first internet retailer of their new celebratory sparkling cider, launched in the fall of 2009. 100% juice from Fresh Apples. Maurice would be proud!
